THE Next Generation Neural Probe
Multifunctional Fibers
Neuroscience research today relies on a multitude of techniques – optical, electrical, and chemical – to record and modulate neural activity.
But technologies to enable these techniques are poorly integrated, often requiring separate experiments – and separate animals – to perform each technique. Combining multiple techniques in a single brain region can offer new insights into neural function.
Enter the Omnifiber: a single integrated neural probe with bidirectional optical, electrical, and chemical capabilities.

Coming Soon: OMNIFIBER
Our first device has 6 tungsten microelectrodes (capable of recording LFP and single-unit activity), an optical channel for optogenetics and fiber photometry, and a fluidic channel for local drug and gene delivery at the probe tip. The probe will be ~300um in diameter, flexible, and made of polymer materials.
