Like submicroscopic spacecrafts: Graphene flakes to control neuron activity

Like in a science fiction novel, miniscule spacecrafts able to reach a specific site of the brain and influence the operation of specific types of neurons or drug delivery: Graphene flakes, the subject matter of the new study of the group of SISSA professor Laura Ballerini, open up truly futuristic horizons. With the researcher Rossana Rauti, Ballerini is responsible for the study recently published in the journal Nano Letters.
