"…the units were probably the best I have ever seen in that brain region so my initial impressions are very good."

Implantable and reusable miniature digital headstage for 64 - 256 channels for freely-behaving mice; for use with all of our silicon neural probes.
Space and weight saving (0.34 grams; small-footprint 2x7 mm; 64 channels or 2x8 mm; 128 channels), mechanical-stress avoided by removing bulky connectors from the equation with high-channel count electrophysiology opened up for the smallest of lab animals - learn more here...
Record hundreds of neurons at a time with unparalleled resolution...
With electrodes on both sides of the probe, you'll be able to record a LOT MORE neurons from the same brain area, exponentially increasing the likelihood of recording from inter-connected pairs and of course building up your basic 'n'-numbers much faster too meaning you can get to your data analysis with greater speed.
With our comprehensive probe library to choose from, you'll be able to optimise electrode placement across a wide range of brain areas, thereby ensuring as many as electrodes as possible are actually on-target.
No matter what the world throws at you during these uncertain times, we'll continue making and shipping our world-beating silicon neural probes along with the rest of our range of cool neuro-tools.
If you're currently planning experiments, writing funding applications, or would like to discuss any other aspect of using our tools, please reach out to us as we'd love to hear from you.

"My students and I unanimously prefer these probes over various others that we have tried. The signal to noise ratio is excellent, and the design is sturdy and robust. For acute recordings, these are the best-engineered and most user-friendly probes I've worked with."

"I got beautiful 'multi-multi' single cell recordings using both your acute 32 channel and 64 channel probes in rodents. The recording quality was truly incredible with huge spikes all over the place; definitely some of the best recordings I have seen using silicon probes so far!!"
