The PharMEA Platform: Multi-Electrode Array technology based platform for industrial pharmacology and toxicology drug screening (PharMEA)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2011,
The project PharMEA is based on the technology platform of multi-electrode arrays, which have been widely used for electrophysiological experiments on neuronal and cardiac tissues. Some of the key advantages of MEA technology include ease of use, non-invasive measurements and simultaneous multi-site recording & stimulation capability. Despite these key advantages, MEA technology utilization has re ...
