Cambridge NeuroTech is focused on the development of silicon neural probes with short lead-times and high channel counts. They also provide probes that are engineered for single unit recording combined with optogenetics with minimal photoelectric artifacts. They have developed microdrives to work with their probes and fiber-optic cannulae, and also provide 3D stacking options for multiple probes. Their approach and electrode options complement the CSNE’s work in data acquisition and brain electrophysiology, especially as the CSNE looks toward increasing channel count and futher leveraging opotogenetics.
