Transient ElectronicsA collaboration between scientists atTufts School of Engineering at the University of Illinois has led to the creation oftiny, fully biocompatible electronic devices that, once they have functioned for a set period of time, dissolve harmlessly into their surroundings. The devices, dubbed "transient electronics", are thought to be the next-generation of medical devices, and could lead to a range of implants that never need surgical removal - not to mention that they are fully compostable....<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/new-biocompatible-electronic-devices-would-dissolve-in-the-body-after-use/'>READ ARTICLE</a>1
