Implantable Devices for Bioelectronic Medicine: Designing Miniature Devices and Local Wireless Platforms for the Future of Therapeutics

Yaoyao Jia

 Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering,

North Carolina State University

Abstract: Multifunctional implantable medical devices (IMDs) can enable neuromodulation-based therapies for diseases and conditions that currently cannot be treated adequately with medication alone, thus potentially improve the quality of life for people worldwide. It is well understood that IMDs with minimum invasiveness are highly desired. This can be achieved by developing miniature, feature-rich IMDs with novel circuit topologies and system architectures. In this seminar, wireless biomedical systems for behavioral neuroscience studies on freely behaving rodents will be presented. Spanning from the development of different types of IMDs to wireless power transmission strategies and to wireless data acquisition interfaces, the design of each fundamental component and how these components come together to form the complete system will be discussed. In particular, this seminar covers detailed introductions on analog front-end designs for sensing and stimulation, followed by inductive link designs for omnidirectional wireless power transmission, and wireless data receiver design for enabling large wireless coverage and eliminating RF blind spots. Finally, this seminar will be concluded with future research directions to address the remaining challenges for translating the IMD technologies into clinical practice.

Short Bio: Dr. Yaoyao Jia is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at North Carolina State University. She received her Ph.D. in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering from Georgia Institute of Technology in 2019. Her research interests lie at analog/mixed-signal integrated circuit (IC) design, system-on-chip (SoC) design, wireless power and data transmission, and embedded hardware/firmware design for implantable microelectronic devices, neural interface and neuroprostheses, and assistive and rehabilitation technologies. She received “Best Paper Award-Gold” at the 2019 IEEE Biomedical Circuits and Systems Conference (BioCAS), 2018-2019 IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society (SSCS) Predoctoral Achievement Award, and “Best Live Demo Award” at the 2015 IEEE BioCAS Conference. She serves as an Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Circuits and Systems (TBioCAS) and a reviewer for journals, including IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits, IEEE Communications Magazine, IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, and IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems I & II.
