Smaller, more sophisticated, lifetime-implantable bionic devices capable of being placed at the site of therapeutic delivery will facilitate new or improved opportunities for treatment of disease. Three critical areas of research aim to be explored in pursuit of this goal will be addressed within this study: introduction of new fabrication materials that enable devices to conform to the anatomy of the targeted site of therapeutic delivery; improved means of addressing the data and energy transfer needs of devices implanted in confined spaces; and innovation of novel sensors for testing and monitoring of atmospheric conditions within the implant to anticipate and safely manage issues relating to a breach of hermetic encapsulation barriers.

更小、更复杂、终生可植入的仿生装置能够被放置在治疗递送部位，这将促进新的或改进的疾病治疗机会。在本研究中，将讨论为实现这一目标而探索的三个关键研究领域：引入新的制造材料，使器械能够符合治疗输送靶部位的解剖结构;改进解决植入密闭空间器械的数据和能量传输需求的方法;以及用于测试和监测植入物内的大气条件的新型传感器的创新，以预测和安全地管理与密封封装屏障的破坏有关的问题。
