Flexible parylene-based microelectrode arrays for high resolution EMG recordings in freely moving small animals

▶ Microelectrode array can resolve simultaneous muscle activities in soft-bodied animal. ▶ Motor activities detected on different channels can be matched to individual muscles. ▶ Microfabricated device is minimally invasive, extremely flexible, mechanically robust. ▶ Same protocol can be used to custom-fabricate devices for other small animals.
