high-density microelectrode arrays

High-density microelectrode arrays are advanced devices equipped with many tiny, closely spaced electrodes that can detect electrical signals from neurons in the brain or nervous system. They enable scientists and medical professionals to monitor, record, and sometimes stimulate neural activity with high precision. These arrays help improve our understanding of brain function, assist in diagnosing neurological conditions, and can serve as interfaces for brain-computer communication. By being densely packed, they offer detailed, localized information about neural processes, advancing research and innovative treatments in neuroscience and neurotechnology.
