T. Leo Liu, assistant professor, mechanical and industrial engineering and IALS, will receive $400,000 over three years to investigate a topic that is exploratory, developmental, proof of concept or high-risk/high-impact.
Inspired by a “Terminator” movie, Liu will use his award to develop the next generation of brain-computer interfacing with liquid metal enabled soft neural probes that, because they are flexible and elastic, minimize an immune response.
