Soft Multifunctional Neural Probes

This is a toolset of multifunctional soft neural probes for simultaneous optical stimulation, optical recording, electrophysiological recording, pharmacological infusion and virus delivery. The neural probes are made of soft and stretchable hydrogel materials, which exhibit superior optical and mechanical properties. With the merit of improved material-tissue interfaces, this tool will allow for long-term neural modulation and recording through multiple modalities.
