Intracortical Microstimulation Induces Rapid Microglia Process Convergence

Nathaniel P. Williams, Anna M. Kelly, X. Sally Zheng, Alberto L. Vazquez, Xinyan Tracy Cui

This study shows that intracortical microstimulation rapidly induces microglia process convergence and increases vascular dye penetration, without correlating with electric field strength.
