DMCdrive: a $10 micro-drive system for electrophysiology & optogenetics

May 1, 2020May 1, 2020 LabOnTheCheap

In the field of neuroscience, micro-drive systems are used to position electrodes in order to make electrophysiology recordings. The DMCdrive is an open-source multi-tetrode for electrophysiology that costs ~$10 per micro-drive. It includes an optical fiber for optogenetic experiments and is demonstrated on freely moving mice. The device is presented in a paper on the […]
