Nanoelectronics to interface neurons systems

Orateur : Cecile DELACOUR (Insitut Néel)

Our investigation mostly focuses on the electrical activity and auto-organization of excitable cells like neurons. How charges are transferred and processed from synapses t o convey signal through the network ? How its connectivity evolves with its activity ? (etc) For that purpose, we aim to implement long lasting, active and non-invasive neuronal interface as a support for neurons growth and in particular hippocampal neurons well known for their plasticity and sprouting abilities. We ’ll present you the development that we have been made at Neel since the past few years from MEA to silicon nanowires and graphene field effect transistors (FETs) and how could they help for both in-vitro and vivo applications.
