An implantable device that reduces blood pressure by stimulating a nerve in the neck could someday be an alternative to drugs for controlling hypertension. The device is one of the latest efforts to use a nerve-stimulating implant to treat a medical condition.
Such implants might offer new hope to those with extreme hypertension. Up to 30 percent of people with high blood pressure cannot be fully treated with medication, and some patients taking the drugs suffer from side effects including fatigue and light-headedness.

Slowly but surely, a few wearable devices—mainly high-tech pedometers like those from Fitbit and Jawbone—are catching on with consumers, and many researchers and companies are certain that body-worn computers will become second nature—sensing, recording, and transmitting data to and from our bodies, to networks around us.
La maladie d'Alzheimer est une affection neuro-dégénérative qui entraine une détérioration progressive et définitive des cellules nerveuses au niveau du système nerveux central [1]. Les neurones situés dans la région de l'hippocampe, qui est le siège de notre mémoire, sont les premiers touchés par la maladie, provocant, dès les premiers stades d'évolution de la maladie, des pertes de mémoire chez le patient. "Où me suis-je marié ? Où sont mes clés ? Où est la boulangerie, déjà ?"...
