Acute and Long-Term Consequences of Neonatal NMDA Blockade in the Cx3cr1Knock-Out Mouse

Méndez et al, Inflammation (2025)

The team used a 32-channel, multi-shank silicon probe from NeuroNexus (A4x8-5mm-200-400-177) for recordings across hipppocampal regions.

Intracortical microstimulation induces rapid microglia process convergence

Williams, N.P. et al, Biomaterials, 2026

Using NeuroNexus A1x16 microelectrode arrays, they showed how intracortical microstimulation drives rapid microglia responses – advancing our understanding of brain-immune interactions.

Employee Spotlight: Doug Noss

This month, we’re featuring our fantastic R&D engineering tech, Doug Noss. Doug has been with NeuroNexus for nearly 5 years!

 

“I specialize in building and refining neural interface prototypes – bridging neuroscience and engineering through hands-on experimentation, 3D printing, and performance testing,” he says.

 

At work, Doug says that he loves “taking ideas from concept to reality – solving complex problems at the micro scale, where precision, patience, and creativity all come together.”

 

Doug told us a little bit about how he spends his time outside of work:

 

“I spend most of my free time with my love, Elizabeth, my dog Emma, my cat Lucy, and my sister Stacey. I also enjoy building things and doing astrophotography – capturing galaxies and nebulae keeps me grounded and reminds me that small details can reveal something vast.” In alignment with his interest in galaxies and nebulae, his favorite movie is Interstellar. “It blends science, emotion, and curiosity in a way that really connects with me,” he says, “the same mix that drives my work and hobbies.

 

A fun fact about Doug is that he’s restoring his 1858 farmhouse in Manchester, Michigan. “Every now and then I uncover hidden treasures,” he says, antique irons, old tools, and small pieces of history tucked away in the walls.”

 

Doug’s blend of creativity, technical skill, and genuine curiosity reminds us what makes this work so meaningful. We’re lucky to have him on the NeuroNexus team!
