Abstract
In one embodiment, the present disclosure relates to an implantable sensor system for sensing biological signal of a patient comprising: an anchor for coupling the sensor to at least one patient skull base structure; a first sensor coupled to the anchor for sensing, at a first location proximate to the at least one patient skull base structure, at least one biological signal of a patient; and a transmitter coupled to the sensor and capable of transmitting data from the sensor to an external device.
