Dual Mouse Hyperdrive Test Pass
We have now tested our first mouse 16 channel hyperdrive and found that it is compatible with stereotrodes. Additional adjustments have been made to lighten the hyperdrive to 6g, by using polyimide guide tubes. More work will be needed to … Continue reading
Published JNS methods
NeuroTek’s first publication of the use of a robotic laser-beam to examine predator and prey-like behavior has been accepted to the Journal of Neuroscience Methods. We intend to put this device on the market in the next two years.
Mouse Dual Hyperdrive
NeuroTek has now designed a dual hyperdrive for mice to simultaneously record from the mouse prefrontal and motor cortices. The hyperdrive will go into testing shortly with a custom EIB for single electrode recording.
SFN
NeuroTek has just signed up for SFN this year. We have decided to present some of our technology in the form of research posters. We will keep you updated as to the poster session etc.
Commutator Rentals
NeuroTek will be starting a simple rental service for customers who would like to test out our motorized commutator prior to purchase. A percentage of the rental cost can be used toward purchase of that particular commutator should the customer … Continue reading
