Microelectrode arrays are useful for studying the electrical
signals generated by groups of neurons. Microfluidic devices provide a
greater level of control in cell behavior studies including control
over cellular microenvironments as well as physical confinement from
another set of cells. By merging these two technologies, we hope to
study the electrical signaling between groups of distinct neural
networks. Understanding the electrical signals produced in neuron
signaling will improve the understanding of neural behavior.
