A Theory of Organic Bioelectronics Materials
The goal of bioelectronics is to interface electrical devices with living tissues, cells and biological fluids to achieve a range of functions: from monitoring biological activity to controlling neuron signals and administering drugs. The materials developed to build these interfaces are typically organic materials containing polymeric conjugated chains combined with ionic components in water. At the moment there is no clear structure-function theory for these materials and no microscopic understanding of how they operate or why some of them perform better. The overall goal of this proposal is (i) to lay the foundations for atomistic modelling of organic bioelectronics materials, (ii) to…
