We will highlight recent technological and methodological advances in deploying miniaturized technologies that can monitor the spatial electrophysiologic patterns of the visceral nervous system. As an example, we will discuss recent developments of thin, stretchable, wireless biosensor patches that can be embedded within routinely used medical adhesives for recording electrophysiologic patterns of the GI tract. We will also showcase recent developments in array signal processing that enable non-invasive tracking, and source localization, of the slow wave patterns associated with the GI tract. We will illustrate how such systems can also be used in tandem with novel miniaturized pacing devices to can enable closed-loop neuromodulation of the enteric nervous system. We will conclude with a summary of the knowns and unknowns in how multi-organ physiology research, technology miniaturization, and data science may create unique opportunities for the intersection of electrical engineering and neuroscience.
