1. An intelligent brain pacemaker for a mammal having a cranial nerve not associated with an autonomic function comprising: (a) a multichannel microwire electrode array for acquiring neural signals from a plurality of single neurons comprising: (i) a plurality of microwire electrodes; (ii) one or more printed circuit boards in electrical connection with the microwire electrodes comprising: ( 1 ) a plurality of conductive traces spaced apart about 0.015 inches (center to center) or less; and ( 2 ) a plurality of conductive pads in communication with the conductive traces; and (iii) one or more connectors in electrical connection with the conductive pads and having contacts spaced about apart 0.030 inches (center to center) or less; (b) a seizure detector adapted to detect seizure-related brain activity of a mammal in real-time, the seizure detector being electrically connected to the multichannel microwire electrode array; (c) one or more nerve stimulators adapted to provide electrical stimulation to a mammal's cranial nerve not associated with an autonomic function, to terminate or ameliorate the seizure, the one or more nerve simulators being electrically connected to the seizure detector; and (d) a power source for providing power to the intelligent brain pacemaker.
