Recording Neuronal Activity On Chip with Segmented 3D Microelectrode Arrays

We present preliminary recordings on chip of three-dimensional (3D) electric neuronal activity from cultures of cortical neurons derived from human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs). The recordings were obtained through 3D microelectrode arrays (MEAs) composed of truncated, 90 μm-high Si micropyramids endowed with multiple, electrically...

Dual-Gate Fet-Based Charge Sensor Enhanced by In-Situ Electrode Decoration in a MEMS Organs-On-Chip Platform

Continuous monitoring of tissue microphysiology is a key enabling feature of the organ-on-chip (OoC) approach for drug screening and disease modeling. Sensing charged species in OoC tissue microenvironments is thereby essential. However, the inherently small (i.e., cm) size of OoC devices poses the challenging requirement to integrate...
