Polymer Implantable Electrode Foundry

Our Mission

The Polymer Implantable Electrode (PIE) Foundry is a technology resource funded by the NIH BRAIN Initiative, dedicated to providing tools and training for neuroscientists. We specialize in the development of polymer microelectrode arrays (MEA), a new technological approach for neural recording and stimulation. Our thin, flexible, biocompatible electrodes may be ideal for your chronic animal experiments.

Our services include:

• Production of custom-made polymer MEAs based on your experimental needs
• Polymer microlithography services for users submitting their own designs
• Electronics packaging of polymer MEAs for your system requirements
• Workshops and training guides on polymer MEA usage
• Testing and metrology for quality-assurance
