Using Magnetized Neurons to Treat Parkinson's Disease Symptoms
Jan. 18, 2024 — Electrical deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a well-established method for treating disordered movement in Parkinson's disease. However, implanting electrodes in a person's brain is an invasive and imprecise way to stimulate nerve cells. Researchers report a new application for the technique, called magnetogenetics, that uses very small magnets to wirelessly trigger specific, gene-edited nerve cells in the brain. The treatment effectively relieved motor symptoms in mice without damaging surrounding brain tissue.

The 8th International Conference on Health and Safety Issues for socially responsible nanomaterials occurred in Grenoble, France, from June 5th to June 9th.

This year's edition, called NanoSAFE & NanoSafety Cluster, featured a new format where the nanoSAFE conference met with the NanoSafety Cluster.
The SUSNANOFAB project and our sister project, NANOFABNET, were presented in a section dedicated to H2020 CSA Projects - Securing the Future for Sustainable Nanofabrication in Europe.
