PhD Scholarships in Biomaterials for Cochlear Implants The University of Queensland

2 PhD Scholarships in Biomaterials for Cochlear Implants The University of Queensland With Cochlear Ltd and Aortech Pty Ltd PhD Scholarships in Biomaterials – Next Generation Insulation for Cochlear Implants Currently, soft silicone materials are employed as insulation for implantable Cochlear electrode arrays. However these materials have limited tensile properties and tear resistance, thereby significantly hampering the scope for new and more complex electrode array designs. The central aim of this project is to explore new insulation materials with similar flexibility, biocompatibility, biostability and electrical insulation to silicone, but with far superior tensile and tear strength. This will be achieved through the development of biomedical polyurethane nanocomposites via a collaboratively-...
