Bioelectronic medicine is an emerging therapeutic field which leverages advances in hardware, computing and material science to regulate neural or cellular activity, and more effectively treat a range of chronic diseases.

One important therapeutic target for bioelectronic medicines is the nervous system which carries electrical impulses – or action potentials – that control virtually every organ or function in our bodies. The nervous system can be modulated to treat diseases through the targeted delivery of various forms of energy including electrical, electromagnetic, and acoustic energy.
