What happened
The MINIGRAPH project, a four-year effort, successfully completed its research into minimally invasive neuromodulation implants. The project produced a preclinically validated platform that combines ultra-thin graphene neural probes with magnetic robotic guidance. This platform can reach deep brain targets along curved trajectories that conventional rigid surgical frames cannot navigate.

Why it matters
The successful completion of the project raises the prospect of expanding who can receive deep brain stimulation. The research was funded under the European Innovation Council's EIC Pathfinder Challenges program, which targets high-risk, early-stage research.
