Abstract in brief

  • The "Mind In Vitro" platform is a versatile, scalable, and customizable system designed for recording and stimulating living neurons, supporting multimodal neural interactions with features like electrical, optical, and fluidic interfaces.
  • It utilizes reconfigurable microelectrode arrays (MEAs) created via rapid maskless photolithography, allowing for quick prototyping of various configurations and materials, along with a software suite for analysis, management, and cloud storage.
  • This open-source, cost-effective solution has been successfully tested with different neural cultures and applications, including embryonic stem cell-derived neurons, brain slices, and 3D tissue models, aiming to advance research and computing with neural systems.]
