"Revolutionary Implantable Battery Powered by Body's Oxygen Supply"
TL;DR Summary
Scientists at China's Tianjin University of Technology have developed an implantable battery that runs on the body's oxygen supply, creating a continuous source of electricity. The battery, made of a sodium-based alloy and nanoporous gold, showed stable electricity output after initial instability, which was found to aid in the healing process. This breakthrough in medical technology could revolutionize how medical devices are powered, similar to developments in brain chips such as Elon Musk's Neuralink, which aims to restore autonomy to individuals with medical needs.
