Miniature LED light inside mouse brain. A thin ribbon containing electrodes, sensors and a light emitting diode (LED) implanted deep within a mouse brain for neuroscience research. Light from the device stimulates specific neural pathways within the brain. The device demonstrates the possibility of micro-sized electronics that can be injected into deep tissue without causing as much damage as conventional electronics. Built by the Rogers Research Group, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
