Design of Microimplants
Issued by
University of California, Irvine
Earners of this badge have demonstrated the ability to analyze, design, and evaluate a micro-implantable device for interfacing with the nervous system. They can analyze the biocompatibility issues, examine the various design constraints, develop viable microfabrication approaches, and evaluate the effectiveness of the design.
