A research team led by Associate Professor Hiroto Sekiguchi and graduate student Gota Shinohara from the Department of Electrical and Electronic Information Engineering at Toyohashi University of ...

(Nanowerk News) Recording the activity of large populations of single neurons in the brain over long periods of time is crucial to further our understanding of neural circuits, to enable novel medical ...

Trying to document how single brain cells participate in networks that govern behavior is a daunting task. Brain probes called Neuropixels, which feature high-density silicon arrays, have enabled ...

Graphene-based transistors enable a flexible neural probe with excellent signal-to-noise ratio. Such probes are useful for examining neural activity for understanding diseases, as well as in ...

Recently I became aware that imec, the research and innovation hub in nanoelectronics and digital technologies, has designed and fabricated a demonstrator of a neural probe with industry-leading ...

Many behaviors, such as feeding, mental state, and even some neurological disorders are controlled by an extensive communication network, relaying signals between the brain and digestive tract.

NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation has announced that it has received a notice of allowance from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for a significant patent titled “Methods for Making Probe ...

Large-scale, long-term recordings of the activity of individual brain neurons are essential for improving our knowledge of neural circuits, developing new medical device-based treatments, and, ...

Studying the complex operations of neural circuits connecting the brain and the major organs such as the digestive tract requires inventive optical devices able to operate in situ during normal ...

It's one of nature's greatest ironies: the human brain lacks the ability to grasp its own complexity. Indeed, the brain is complicated. The three-pound organ housed in our heads consists of roughly 86 ...
