(I think this is something different, but possibly of interest to people whose imagination is captured by electronic interfaces with the nervous system) "A research team led by a 2018 BBRF Young Investigator, Sung Il Park, Ph.D., reports that it has developed and tested a new technology enabling unprecedented exploration of nerve-cell function inside organs of the body outside of the brain. The new technology, called optoelectronics, uses tiny wireless implantable devices to manipulate the activity of individual nerve cells in the organs of awake, freely moving animals. This makes possible experiments with the power to reveal the specific (and often multiple) functions of different kinds of nerve cells in the body's periphery." https://www.bbrfoundation.org/content/new-technology-enables-manipulation-neurons-peripheral-organs-and-reveals-mechanism-appetite https://www.bbrfoundation.org/content/new-technology-enables...
