microelectrodes

By attaching microelectrodes to the insects 'antennae, the researchers could measure the electrical impulses that are generated when mosquitoes recognize a chemical.

Several team members, including Andersen, will actually scuba dive in the lake, using fluormeters and microelectrodes while underwater to detect, measure and quantify photosynthetic activity of the benthic mats and obtain samples for lab work on the surface.

As the family explored options to help Jorden, they spoke with Derald Brackmann, a doctor at the House Ear Clinic in Los Angeles, and learned of a procedure called Auditory Brainstem Implant (ABI), in which microelectrodes are implanted on the hearing portion of the patient's brainstem to send sound signals directly to the brain from an external microphone and sound processor.

We collaborated with my good friend William Sleator of the Physiology Department in the study of changes in cellular action potentials (measured with intracellular microelectrodes) associated with the changes in contractility of the guinea pig atrium in response to epinephrine and acetylcholine, and a number of other inotropic agents.

Merzenich's work, which involves direct mapping of the cerebral cortex with sixty or more microelectrodes in order to sample a single sensory field, gives a far richer picture of its activity than any study of a single neuronal unit can.
