Abstract
In the last decades the huge development in the synthesis of reliable and effective biodegradable and biocompatible materials and the improvement of microfabrication techniques, have brought a wide increase in neural technologies. These devices can interface and interact with the neural system, especially for medical applications, increasing the healing process for different injuries and diseases. Among such applications, one of the most intriguing is based on scaffolds that help the regrowth and regeneration of peripheral nerves. In this project, the milestones for the complete design and fabrication of a biodegradable scaffold for the regeneration of peripheral nerves are deposited. Three main characteristics are mandatory for this scaffold: the use of biodegradable material, the presence of integrated stretchable electrodes, and the mechanical stimuli of the nerves to enhance their healing.
However, due to the embryonal stage of the project, starting from scratches, the basic steps are needed to be fixed and set
