Objective
RELAI will design and exploit a toolbox of innovative bioelectronic technologies and surgical constructs that will enable new possibilities in neural interfacing and revolutionise the way we transduce information to and from the human body. This new class of living bioelectronics will leverage bespoke electrode arrays and electrical stimulation paradigms to guide neural regeneration within autologous surgical constructs in vivo. The reinnervated constructs are hypothesised to form living high-resolution interfaces that will enable precise modulation of somatic and autonomic functions via injured and intact nerves. This innovative class of biohybrid interfaces will enable a broad array of applications ranging from the treatment of chronic conditions (such as diabetes) to the enhanced operation of advanced neuroprostheses, and the realisation of supraphysiological sensing.

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
