MAIL Online - Scientists create breakthrough bionic ear using cybernetics - Terminator-style machines could be next, May 02, 2013

Michael McAlpine, lead researcher and assistant professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at Princeton Univeristy said 'In general, there are mechanical and thermal challenges with interfacing electronic materials with biological materials. 'Previously, researchers have suggested some strategies to tailor the electronics so that this merger is less awkward.   More... Coming to a CCTV camera near you soon: The amazing 'bug eye' lens that can see 180 degrees The superglue inspired by world's stickiest fish - which can hold up to 230 times its own bodyweight That typically uses a 2D sheet of electronics and a surface tissue. 'However, our work suggests a new approach - to build and grow the biology up with the electronics synergistically and in a 3D interwoven format.' "
