    A fast-growing field of neuroscience and medicine is the treatment of disease via electrical stimulation of the peripheral nervous system. Peripheral nerve stimulation delivers stimulation to nerves of the periphery where the target nerve can and is often located deep within the abdomen. Long-term preclinical animal models that demonstrate the safety and/or efficacy of electrical stimulation have predominantly used a skull mount to connect to neural interfaces. When targeting nerves of the extremities and abdomen, this mount location is less favourable due to its distance to the implant causing complications in surgery and to the longevity of the device in vivo.
