An Implantable Cortical Linear-Array Electrode for Improving the Signal Quality of Isolated Neurons in the Cortical Tissue Layers of Primates


Detailed Technology Description

Scientists at UC San Diego have designed a laminar electrode capable of recording isolated unit activity throughout all layers of a primate’s cortex. This technology is able to readily differentiate layers while recording the responses of different types of neurons in specific cortical layers, permitting better neuron classification (e.g., inhibitory neurons versus pyramidal neurons). Employing this technology, researchers may readily investigate how the stimulus-evoked flow of activity throughout a cortical column is influenced by attention state.
