DESCRIPTION:06 March 2020 (13:40): IEEE AP/MTT/EMC/ED Turkey Seminar Series
  (S.67)\n\nSpeaker: Assoc. Prof. Sedat Nizamoğlu\, Koç University\n\nTop
 ic: &quot;Bioelectronic Neuron-machine Interfaces Controlled with Light&quot;\n\nLoc
 ation: Middle East Technical University\, Ankara\, Turkey\n\nAbstract: Bio
 electronic devices controlling neurons show high promise for advanced trea
 tments of a broad range of neurological disorders such as retinal degenera
 tion\, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. Light is an excellent tool for com
 municating with biological systems\, thanks to its high spatial and tempor
 al resolution. In my speech\, I will discuss how we can generate bioelectr
 onic stimuli with optoelectronic devices to control neurons [1]. For this 
 purpose\, I will present innovative devices based on organics and nanomate
 rials with high light sensitivity [2]. I will also show that nanoscale cha
 rge control can provide photostimulation of neurons at low light level [3\
 ,4]. These findings bring new approaches to superior light-triggered bioel
 ectronic control of neural activity.\n\n[1] Bahmani Jalali\, H.\; Mohammad
