Researchers from the National University School of Medicine have revealed an implantable wireless chip that can be used to remotely monitor pressure , temperature , pH , motion , and blood flow within the brain , before dissolving when its batteries deplete . So far , the device has been successfully tested in the brains of rats , but researchers believe that it should be tested in the organs and tissues of human subjects , with the test rats showing no resemblance to the test rats .
