Type: article
Abstract: Wireless Electric Human Neural Tissue In article 2310010, Emma Claire James, Eva Tomaskovic-Crook, and Jeremy Micah Crook describe engineering advanced 3D scaffold-free human neural tissues, loaded with piezoelectric nanoparticles for enhanced tissue maturation and function. The nanoparticles act as wireless electrical stimulators by being acoustically activated. The cover artwork portrays the work with ultrasound waves (pulses of sound) propagating through cultured neural tissues with activated piezoelectric nanoparticles.
