Neural interfacing devices using penetrating microelectrode arrays have emerged as an
important tool in both neuroscience research and medical applications. These implantable …

We present a new class of carbon-based neural probes that consist of homogeneous glassy
carbon (GC) microelectrodes, interconnects and bump pads. These electrodes have purely …

Finding the most appropriate technology for building electrodes to be used for long term
implants in humans is a challenging issue. What are the most appropriate technologies …

Dopamine (DA) plays a central role in the modulation of various physiological brain
functions, including learning, motivation, reward, and movement control. The DA dynamic …

We report on a novel technology for microfabricating 3D origami-styled micro electro-

The use of implants that allow chronic electrical stimulation and recording in the brain of
human patients is currently limited by a series of events that cause the deterioration over …

The stability of the interface between neural tissue and chronically implanted devices is
crucial for interrogation for both the central and peripheral nervous systems. One of the main …

Neuroscience deals with one of the most complicate system we can study: the brain. The
huge amount of connections among the cells and the different phenomena occurring at …

Designing electrodes for neural interfacing applications requires deep consideration of a
multitude of materials factors. These factors include, but are not limited to, the stiffness …
