Motif Neurotech, Houston, TX 1 2 Bioelectronic devices that manipulate and record human neural activity could help patients suffering from debilitating health conditions not effectively treated by drugs. Here we discuss the exponential growth in both neuroscience and neurotechnology that provides the ingredients to fuel exponential growth of implantable neurotechnology as therapeutic options, and the implications this has on circuit design for neurotech applications. Neurotech for mental health and neurological conditions There is a growing consensus that direct modulation of electrical transmission through the nervous system can treat inflammatory disorders, mental health, and neurological conditions with better efficacy and fewer side effects when compared to drugs [1]. For bioelectronic therapies to become standard of care the clinical benefit must significantly outweigh the risks associated with the intervention. Indeed, neurotechnology exists on
