On 09/30/2019, the Institute Edmond and Lily Safra Neuroscience International (IIN-ELS) published a scientific article published in the journal Jove, a pioneer in the world in publishing videos of scientific experiments, presenting images and protocols in text that facilitate scientific reproducibility and productivity.
The work was carried out and submitted by researchers and students of the Master in Neuroengineering at IIN-ELS. The video presents a stereotaxic surgery protocol for neurosurgical implantation of microelectrode arrays in order to obtain electrophysiological recordings. This method offers the opportunity to study brain functions.
