This paper develops a zwitterionic polymer coating to enable chronic dopamine sensing and electrophysiology recording in freely moving mice over four weeks.

This study uses single-cell spatial transcriptomics to analyze the brain's response to different microelectrode materials and sizes in rats, finding that electrode dimensions have a greater impact on tissue response than material type.

The paper compares gene expression in reactive astrocyte culture models to spatial transcriptomics data from implanted devices in rat brains, identifying shared genes and biomarkers of the foreign body response.
