Electrically active constructs can have a beneficial effect on electroresponsive tissues, such
as the brain, heart, and nervous system. Conducting polymers (CPs) are being considered
as components of these constructs because of their intrinsic electroactive and flexible
nature. However, their clinical application has been largely hampered by their short
operational time due to a decrease in their electronic properties. We show that, by
immobilizing the dopant in the conductive scaffold, we can prevent its electric deterioration …
