The University of Florida received a $1,267,914 Project Grant award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of the Director under the Trans-NIH Research Support program (CFDA 93.310). The award, which runs from September 2024 to September 2027, aims to develop a novel generation of injectable, wireless microchip implantable medical devices (IMDs) capable of targeted health interventions.

The key innovations include the design of compact, reconfigurable integrated circuits; enhanced power transfer efficiency; and the application of cost-effective, inkjet printing-based techniques for efficient device assembly and fabrication. The project will also introduce a precise injection technique to enhance placement accuracy and minimize tissue damage. By developing these injectable, scalable, and versatile wireless microdevices, the project seeks to redefine the future of IMDs and enable earlier disease treatment options.
