Our new book chapter: “Magnetic nanomaterials for minimally invasive neuromodulation” highlights how magnetic nanotechnology could enable the next generation of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) therapies—moving toward more targeted, less invasive neuromodulation strategies.The chapter appears in the bo...

Last week, Danijela Gregurec and Franziska Wasner participated in the SAHMN 2026 congress (Self-Assembled Hybrid Materials in Nanomedicine: From Non-Viral Vectors to Cancer Therapy and Neurostimulation) held at CIC biomaGUNE in San Sebastian, Spain. The meeting brought together international expert...

We successfully kicked off our Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions project SUSNAMU with a great online event, bringing together our partners from all over the world to align on goals, exchange ideas, and start our collaboration. Concurrently, the project website was launched and the first exchanges a...

Last week, the BRAINSTORM project successfully passed its second review meeting with the EIC - European Innovation Council.This milestone marks the end of the second reporting period, during which the consortium showcased significant progress across all areas of the BRAINSTORM technology developmen...
