SNEL

Soft Neuro Electronics Lab

We invent materials and engineering tools

that advance our understanding of the brain and nervous system

and address challenges in the brain, neuroscience, and medicine.

Welcome to SNEL at KAIST!

Our lab focuses on 'Soft brain-machine interfaces' that interact with brain and nerves using soft, biocompatible, and functional materials such as (semi-)conducting polymers, hydrogels and elastomers, along with devices including high-density neural probes, neuromorphic prosthetics, and wearable/implantable biomedical applications.

Through this, we aim to improve our understanding of the brain and nervous system and develop a next-generation soft, low-power neuromorphic prosthetic system that helps rehabilitate patients with neurological diseases.
