Applications

•Probe biological cells

•Study response to electrical stimuli

•Cell migration studies

•Cochlear Implants

• Consist of up to 21 electrodes

• Electrodes scar over before useful contacts can be made

• Grow wires past scar tissue and into healthy tissue

o See “Electrochemical Polymerization of Conducting Polymers in Living Neural Tissue”

• Apply a voltage, get neurons to attach before scarring
