We develop soft bioelectronic systems to sense, decode, and modulate neural activity.
The research group of Prof. George D. Spyropoulos
At Neural Waves, we work at the intersection of materials science, bioelectronics, and neuroscience. We develop technologies that translate advances in materials and bioelectronics into neural interfaces, cochlear implants, and therapeutic devices.
Our research
Bioelectronic Materials & Devices
Creating new materials and devices for next-generation bioelectronics.
Neural Interfaces
Designing soft, multimodal interfaces to record and modulate neural activity.
Neurobiology of Brain Circuits
Decoding brain circuits to inform diagnostics and closed-loop therapies.
Auditory Neurotechnology & Hearing Restoration
Advancing auditory neurotechnology toward next-generation hearing restoration.
From materials to function
From materials and devices to neural circuits and hearing restoration, we connect fundamental science with technologies designed to understand, interact with, and restore biological function.
Our vision
A future where bioelectronic technologies integrate safely and seamlessly with the body, enabling new ways to understand neural and auditory function, restore lost function, and improve human health.
Our mission
We bring together materials science, bioelectronics, neuroscience, and auditory science to develop advanced devices, neural interfaces, and therapeutic systems—from fundamental discovery to technologies with real-world impact.
