Deep Brain Stimulation

The NeuroNexus rDBSA (research Deep Brain Stimulation Array) is the research-grade version of an innovative clinical DBS technology.

Operators

Small Animal

  • Acute or chronic – The rDBSA is available in both acute and chronic versions.
  • High Resolution – Our 40-channel design enables precise, selective recording, and tunable microstimulation of deep brain structures.

 

  • Small Animal – We also offer a rat-sized rDBSA designed in collaboration with Daniel Ehrens at Johns Hopkins University
