2014 MED64 Customers Workshop and Scientific Advances in Micro-Electrode Array (MEA) Electrophysiology
The goal of this meeting is to create awareness among new investigators and established scientists of the diverse applications of micro-electrode array (MEA) systems. This session will illustrate why this system is ideal for studying network electrophysiology, increasing throughput of conventional microelectrode recordings, and enabling researchers to quickly and easily perform electrophysiological studies regardless of their scientific background. Speakers from mainland China, Taiwan and Hong Kong, ranging from industry and leading academia, will present their research enabled by innovative neuroscience research methods with MED64 systems in a variety of preparations. There will also be demonstrations by MED64 scientists, with the help of customers, with live samples on how to make recording from acute slices and other neuronal culture. Practical tips and techniques will be shared during the event.
The target audience for this event includes all neuroscientists who strive to get reliable, long-term, continuous recordings and two-dimensional, real-time analysis of neuronal activity.
