| Abstract | Peripheral nerve injuries (PNI) are a leading cause of chronic disability that affects millions of people in the U.S. Understanding long term effects of PNI is challenging because most diagnostic tools, such as advanced imaging, only provide a snapshot in time. The field of bioelectronics may provide new tools to monitor PNI continuously over long times, if certain challenges can be overcome. This CAREER project will design and fabricate bioelectronic devices that integrate into tissue and conti |
