Collaborative research project with the University of Ulm
In this collaborative project, a novel prototype of the Brain Interchange implant system will be developed that is specifically adapted to preclinical research and will offer unprecedented flexibility and functionalities.

To that end, a custom-designed microchip (ASIC) is developed and integrated into the system. In addition, further components of the implant system will be significantly improved.
