Summary
This proposal will develop scientific instrumentation to enable next generation interfacing with the heart and brain using light instead of electricity. Multichannel optical arrays will be fabricated using advanced materials and a control system developed and tested experimentally. The cost-effective technology will enable researchers to enhance our knowledge of the heart and brain with evolving optical approaches and offers future clinical applications for heart rhythm disorders and epilepsy.
