In article number 1702479 , John A. Rogers, Jae‐Woong Jeong, and co‐workers develop a battery‐free, wireless optofluidic neural system by integrating a multimodal neural probe consisting of micro‐scale inorganic light‐emitting diodes, and a microfluidic drug delivery system with a stretchable radiofrequency energy‐scavenging circuit, into an ultracompact, lightweight and soft platform. The miniature neural implant can be fully implanted in the brain for in vivo wireless pharmacology and optogenetics.
