Taiwan has over 200,000 people suffering from epilepsy, about a third of which cannot be treated through medication alone. To help them and others afflicted with this dangerous condition, a research team from National Chiao Tung University has developed a chip that can be implanted in the brain to detect and suppress seizures. The chip is unique for both its success rate and its externally charged power source.
