@ChristosMarkos @DTUtweet @neuroscience_dk @AdvancedScnce @UCLIoN @DNS_UOM @GJBrainResearch @CntmMcr We introduce a novel flexible microfluidic neural interface, termed the microfluidic axialtrode (mAxialtrode), a soft, multimodal device that integrates optical, electrical, and chemical sensing and stimulation capabilities into a single polymer-based neural interface.

📍fUSbrain #DAYS 2025📍
🧠Day 1 of fUSbrain #DAYS 2025 is underway in Paris!

This event brings together the international fUS community to share advances in brain imaging using functional ultrasound.

We are proud to support the event as a sponsor, and to contribute to today's program and special evening cruise on the Seine River.

✨ It’s been a great day for the fUS community, and a chance to show our ongoing commitment to neuroscience innovation worldwide.
