Abstract

A micro-scale implantable bioelectronic medical device system that allows multichannel neurostimulation of peripheral nerve bundles so to affect a more localized and specific control over neuromodulation of body tissues and organs. Such systems can be used in medical therapeutic applications for the treatment of a wide variety of disorders of the human body and may be applied in the growing field of medical neuromodulation. Systems and processes may also provide a way of interfacing to nerve and muscle for purposes of the control of advanced robotic prosthetics as well as man-machine interfaces. Apparatus, systems and processes may be adapted in various embodiments to the stimulation of brain and other bioelectrically excitable tissues in the human body as well.
