中国科学家研制了一种蠕虫形磁控植入器,以高度精密和长期安全的方式监测小鼠的神经活动。 Chinese scientists developed a worm-shaped, magnetically controlled implant that monitors neural activity with high precision and long-term safety in mice.

中国科学家创建了NeuroWorm, 这是一种灵活且受蚯蚓启发的微纤维,它利用磁力控制来监测神经信号和组织变化,在人体组织中移动。 Chinese scientists have created NeuroWorm, a flexible, earthworm-inspired microfiber that moves through body tissues using magnetic control to monitor neural signals and tissue changes. 它含有60纳米级传感器,比传统装置多15倍,能够进行准确、长期、多点记录。 About 200 micrometers wide—thinner than two human hairs—it contains 60 nano-scale sensors, 15 times more than traditional devices, enabling precise, long-term, multi-point recordings. 在小鼠试验中,该植入物在13个月内保持生物兼容性,没有不良反应。 Tested in mice, the implant remained biocompatible for up to 13 months without adverse reactions. 与固定植入物不同的是,它可以在不重复手术的情况下对大脑或肌肉进行导航,从而有可能使脑机器接口和帕金森等神经疾病治疗发生革命性变化。 Unlike fixed implants, it can navigate the brain or muscles without repeated surgeries, potentially revolutionizing brain-machine interfaces and treatments for neurological disorders like Parkinson’s. 该研究在《自然》杂志上发表,标志着向移动智能神经系统的转变。 The study, published in Nature, represents a shift toward mobile, intelligent neural systems. 由东华大学的延伟和中国科学院的刘志元领导,小组计划合作推进临床使用。 Led by Yan Wei of Donghua University and Liu Zhiyuan of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the team plans to collaborate on advancing clinical use.
