Advanced Electrophysiology Systems

Built around our world-leading silicon neural probe technology

NEW miniature on-skull digital headstages...

Cambridge Neurotech mini-amp-128 headstages for electrophysiology in small behaving animals mice rats birds


Implantable and reusable miniature digital headstage for 64 - 256 channels for freely-behaving mice; for use with all of our silicon neural probes.

Space and weight saving (0.4 grams; small-footprint 2x7 mm), mechanical-stress avoided by removing bulky Omnetics connectors from the equation with high-channel count electrophysiology opened up for the smallest of lab animals - learn more here...

Double your data with our Double-Sided Probes

Cambridge-NeuroTech-Advanced-Silicon-Neural-Probes-for-electrophysiology-and-optogenetics

Record hundreds of neurons at a time with unparalleled resolution...

With electrodes on both sides of the probe, you'll be able to record a LOT MORE neurons from the same brain area, exponentially increasing the likelihood of recording from inter-connected pairs and of course building up your basic 'n'-numbers much faster too meaning you can get to your data analysis with greater speed.

With our comprehensive probe library to choose from, you'll be able to optimise electrode placement across a wide range of brain areas, thereby ensuring as many as electrodes as possible are actually on-target.

No matter what the world throws at you during these uncertain times, we'll continue making and shipping our world-beating silicon neural probes along with the rest of our range of cool neuro-tools.

If you're currently planning experiments, writing funding applications, or would like to discuss any other aspect of using our tools, please reach out to us as we'd love to hear from you.

Alternatively, check out our Knowledge Base for the inside-track on key know-how and much more.

"I'm genuinely blown away by the SomaFocus system. We've tested several MEA platforms over the years and were never able to generate meaningful data from our organoid models, until now. SomaFocus has completely changed the game for us."

"I got beautiful 'multi-multi' single cell recordings using both your acute 32 channel and 64 channel probes in rodents. The recording quality was truly incredible with huge spikes all over the place; definitely some of the best recordings I have seen using silicon probes so far!!"
