General Considerations
Microelectrode arrays with thin shanks that penetrate tissue. Precise site layouts and geometries to 'fit' target anatomy.
Thin, flexible polymer arrays (12 µm thick) the conform to the surface of the brain, skull, nerve, or epicardium.
Support multi-modal electrophysiology: recording, stimulation, optogenetics, targeted drug delivery. Multiple packaging options are available to support diverse applications. All electrodes are plug-and-play with NeuroNexus systems and software, and also are compatible with common third-party products.

Choosing an Electrode — FAQ
How do the three browse axes relate?
They are orthogonal — one probe can appear under a target, a modality, and a signal. Start from whichever constraint is fixed first, then narrow with the others.
Can one probe span multiple modalities?
Yes. Optoelectrodes combine recording with optical stimulation; Fusion probes add fluidic drug delivery. A device can belong to several modality collections.
Which axis should I start with?
Start from the constraint you cannot change — usually the anatomical target or the signal band — then filter by the others in the webstore.
Where do I see specs and pricing?
Every collection card opens the webstore filtered to that collection, where you can compare channel counts, site geometry, and configuration.
