An ingestible, battery-free, tissue-adhering robotic interface for non-invasive and chronic electrostimulation of the gut

Prof. YU Xinge collaborated with MIT and Zhejiang University to develop an ingestible, battery-free, and tissue-adhering robotic interface (IngRI) for non-invasive and chronic electrostimulation of the gut. The results of this study suggest that concepts inspired by soft and wireless skin-interfacing electronic devices could be applied to ingestible electronics with potential clinical applications for evaluating and treating gastrointestinal conditions. The paper was published in Nature Communications, titled "An ingestible, battery-free, tissue-adhering robotic interface for non-invasive and chronic electrostimulation of the gut" (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-51102-5).
