Device for axon and neurite growth and method for producing the same

摘要

The present invention relates to a device for directing and accelerating the growth of neuronal axon or neurite. The invention accelerates the growth speed of axon of nerve cells by using a substrate configured with a discontinuous micropattern of neuronal path-finding molecules or material thereon. The invention can reduce the connection or regeneration time of neural network. The present invention also discloses a micro-contact printing method for producing the device.
