Bioelectronics is a new frontier field concerned with integrating electrical control systems and biological entities for applications such as in-situ bio-monitoring and cellular-level control and interrogation of tissue. Electrical signals in biology are mostly carried by ion currents, whilst conventional electronics rely on electrons. This project addresses the critical challenge of bioelectronics; the development of biocompatible electrical interfaces capable of transducing ion-and-electron currents. This project will specifically study the complex transport physics of conducting biomacromolecules and develop new interface devices, with an ultimate goal is to create a simple and generic transducing element for cellular-level electrical communication.
