NeuroTek has completed the production of the first commercially available commutator for Intan Chips used by Intan and OpenEphys! Our smaller form factor has reduced the overall price to bring costs within the range of the open-source world, while still … Continue reading →

Our new 16 stereotrode drive is now available. This drive is a 2X9 linear bunndle which was originally built to target the amygdala of mice. The drive bundles converge so that more sensors can be packed into this tiny structure. … Continue reading →

We are excited to be presenting our Abstract for this years Canadian Neuroscience Meeting in Toronto. The title of the abstract is: Triggering naturalistic and synthetic sequences of optogenetic stimulation with an Arduino-based pattern generator.

NeuroTek is now offering to implant your drives and ship them to you. This is called our plug and publish program. Have a look under the consultation and services tab

Our electrode twister(called Helix) is just about ready. This twister is controlled by an arduino and features a built in stepper motor driver. You can program both the number of clock wise and counter clock wise twists or use it … Continue reading →

We have just completed a smaller version of original microdrive. This drive is small indeed!, uses a 000120 threaded screw and we are developing multi-channel drives around this.

We have just added to our arsenal of multichannel drives. There is a new custom retrosplenial cortex and hippocampus recording drive for mice. We have also added a quad drive to target both anterior cingulate cortex and the ventral tegmental … Continue reading →

Happy to say that our 100 channel commutator built specifically for multiple intan chips was sent out to Neuralink recently. Hope they like it.

Nice to see the CHEndoscope release from JFlabs which is a rather nice USB2.0 scope for imaging brain cells and fits with our USB2.0 commutator. We are looking forward to assembling these for Labs interested in imaging https://www.biorxiv.org/content/biorxiv/early/2018/01/24/252205.full.pdf

Happy to say that our Toronto ephys network is growing. We have installed our systems and others in various labs in Toronto to record Amygdala, Hippocampus and VTA in mice and the data is flowing. We are also offering training … Continue reading →
