The goal of this project is to develop efficient micro-magnetic stimulation probes that could potentially replace conventional electrode-based stimulation devices for chronic applications. The key point about micro-magnetic stimulation is the fact that the micro-coils are encapsulated with a biocompatible material and therefore avoid direct contact with the tissue, unlike electrode-based stimulation devices. Therefore, micro-magnetic stimulation efficiency does not decrease over time.
