Considerable scientific and technological efforts have been devoted to develop
neuroprostheses and hybrid bionic systems that link the human nervous system with …

▪ Abstract Tissue function is modulated by an intricate architecture of cells and biomolecules
on a micrometer scale. Until now, in vitro cellular interactions were mainly studied by …

Upon publication almost 15 years ago, the first edition almost instantly became a trusted
reference, setting the stage for the coming decade, in which the explosion in research and …

Axons are traditionally considered stable transmission cables, but evidence of the regulation
of action potential propagation demonstrates that axons may have more important roles …

Recent progress in cell culture and microfabrication technologies has contributed to the
development of cell‐based biosensors for the functional characterization and detection of …

The characteristics and mechanisms of synchronized firing in develo** networks of
cultured cortical neurons were studied using multisite recording through planar electrode …

Extracellular action potentials were recorded from develo** dissociated rat neocortical
networks continuously for up to 49 days in vitro using planar multielectrode arrays …

Here we present an inexpensive method to fabricate microscopic cellular cultures, which
does not require any surface modification of the substrate prior to cell seeding. The method …

The neurochip is a silicon micromachined device upon which cultured mammalian neurons
can be continuously and individually monitored and stimulated. The neurochip is based …

The Handbook of Chemical and Biological Sensors focuses on the development of sensors
to recognize substances rather than physical quantities. This fully inclusive book examines …
