Ophthalmologists Use Artificial Silicon Retina Microchip To Treat Vision Loss
Ophthalmologists at Rush University Medical Center implanted Artificial Silicon Retina (ASR) microchips in the eyes of five patients to treat vision loss caused by retinitis pigmentosa (RP). The implant is a silicon microchip 2mm in diameter and one-thousandth of an inch thick, less than the thickness of a human hair. Four patients had surgery Tuesday, January 25. The fifth patient is sch...Ophthalmologists implant five patients with artificial silicon retina microchip

The ultimate applications are potentially limitless. In the long term it will possibly enable the creation of very sophisticated neural prostheses to combat neurological disorders. What's more, it could allow the creation of organic computers that use living neurons as their CPU. Those applications are potentially decades away, but in the much nearer term the new technology could enable ve...Nano machine switches between biological and silicon worlds
"Frankly, some researchers didn't think what we were attempting was possible," says Dr Keith Firman, at Portsmouth University and Mol-Switch project coordinator, funded under the European Commission's Future and Emerging Technologies initiative. "However, we got our molecular switch to work." The upshot is that the Mol-Switch project was far more successful than expected. The team's switch...Silicon at Biology Products
Description:For the ultimate in utility and flexibility press-to-seal silicone isolators can be customized to meet the needs of the researcher. They are available either pre-cut to specific interior dimensions or as sheet material that can be easily trimmed to prepare customized enclosures. These isolators are autoclavable and non-cytotoxic and can be used to isolate cells in culture dishes or to separate sp...

When graduate student Pengpeng Zhang successfully imaged a piece of silicon just 10 nanometers-or a millionth of a centimeter-in thickness, she and her UW-Madison co-researchers were puzzled. According to established thinking, the feat should be impossible because her microscopy method required samples that conduct electricity. "After she did it, we realized, 'Hey, this silicon layer is...Silicon at Medicine News

Implantable devices to be powered by organosilicon compounds in the future
Medical technology has advanced so much to the extent of replacing lost organs or improving function of existing ones using artificial implants. These implantable devices are becoming commonplace today by serving as a good // alternative to the conventional treatment. Such effective utilization would not have been possible without the availability of lithium batteries that supply power...Silicone Rubber Flap Restore Speech
Marein van der Torn and his colleagues at the Vrije University in Amsterdam in collaboration with the University of Groningen developed a new mechanism for vocal sound. // Usually in case of throat cancer the larynx or the voice box as it is called has to be surgically removed.

A report by the National Research Center (NRC) for Women & Families says that breast cancer survivors who undergo reconstructive surgery with silicone implants have very // little information available to them regarding the possible risks and complications about the procedure.
