A High-density Microelectrode for Human Neuronal Recordings
Assessment of Safety and Utility of a High-density Microelectrode for Human Neuronal Recording
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 30 Dec 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The purpose of this study is to test the ability of a newly-designed electrode to measure the activity of individual nerve cells (neurons), and collections of nerve cells (local field potentials) in the brain. The study's main goals are to see how well this electrode works compared to standard electrodes and to validate its safety.
