DESCRIPTION:Prof. Micha E. Spira\, Department of Neurobiology\, Life Scien
 ces Institute\, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem\, Israel\nAbstract\nInt
 erfacing neurons with micro- and nano-electronic devices has been a subjec
 t of intense studies over the last decade. Major efforts are devoted to im
 proving the bi-directional electrical coupling between the neurons and the
  electrical devices\, and to increase the spatial resolution of the electr
 ical systems. The basic concept that drives the field is based on the assu
 mption that “noninvasive” extracellular FPs recording and stimulation 
 is the only practical way that can be applied to  study neuronal networks 
 in culture and under in vivo conditions. \n\nIn the presentation I will re
 port on our progress to fabricate and utilize multi-electrode arrays in wh
 ich individual microelectrodes are functionally placed inside a neuron\, f
 or intracellular recordings of sub-threshold synaptic potentials and actio
 n potentials.
