This Spring, the Flemish Government decided to
establish a new strategic R&D center, NERF. NERF stands
for NeuroElectronics Research Flanders, and aims to
develop new neuroelectronics technologies to fight
neurodegenerative diseases.
NERF is a joint venture of IMEC, VIB and the University of
Leuven. They bundle their expertises in neurology,
biomedicine and nanoelectronics into a single institute,
led by 4 principal investigators who are in the process of
being recruited worldwide.
More info on NERF can be found at www.nerf.be
