Towards a Low-Power, Minimally-Invasive Nerve Regeneration

In this paper we will explore current advances and the future directions of nerve regeneration implants. We will discuss the challenges of developing implants which can be chronically implanted for long-term nerve regeneration and stimulation. We will also discuss the need for developing such implants to be low-power and minimally invasive. We will compare solutions proposed in the literature as well as develop some criteria which we believe will maximize the success of future implant development.
