Deskripsi

Non-invasive manipulation of brain circuits with molecular and spatial specificity could revolutionize the treatment of brain disorders. Here, the authors remotely concentrate and deliver drugs to focal brain regions without compromising the blood-brain barrier using novel ultrasound sequences and drug carriers.
