Located in the CNSI (California NanoSystems Institute) at UCLA, Niche Biomedical is working on using bioelectronic medicine for treatment of diseases and injuries incurable pharmaceutically. An emerging field, bioelectronic medicine employs miniaturized implantable devices to modulate the nervous system/biological tissues through electrical stimulation for the treatment of diseases and injuries. Leveraging the principals expertise in physiology, neuroengineering and neural interface, prosthetic device, microelectronics, electrode, and packaging technology, and focused on treatments using neuromodulation, Niche Biomedical is developing miniaturized implantable devices that retain sophisticated functionality with various electrode shape and number. Advanced bioelectronics/microelectronics design providing sophisticated functionalities >20x smaller form factor than existing commercial implants.
