DESCRIPTION:Resolving the underlying mechanisms of complex neural function
 s and associated disorders remains a major challenge in neuroscience\, lar
 gely due to the difficulty in mapping large-scale neural network dynamics 
 with high temporal and spatial resolution. Interacting with the nervous sy
 stem using a combination of modalities—electricity\, light\, and ultraso
 und—offers a promising approach to surpass conventional resolution limit
 s. In this talk\, I will introduce our recent work on developing soft neur
 al interfaces that operate seamlessly in a multimodal fashion for both in 
 vitro and in vivo applications. I will also briefly discuss our advances i
 n medical-grade soft substrates and novel conformal encapsulation strategi
 es for chronic neural implants\, addressing critical challenges in the lon
 g-term stability and integration of neuroelectronic systems.
