摘要:
Stimulation of target cells using light, e.g., in vivo, is implemented using a variety of methods and devices. According to an example embodiment of the present invention, target cells are stimulated using an implantable arrangement. The arrangement includes an electrical light-generation means for generating light and a biological portion.The biological portion has a photosensitive bio-molecular arrangement that responds to the generated light by stimulating target cells in vivo.
