Borton Lab - An engineered home environment for untethered data telemetry from nonhuman primates
August 15, 2017
Researchers in the Borton lab have developed a home environment for nonhuman primates using primarily non-conductive materials to overcome hindered wireless data transmission in standard primate housing. Graduate student Marc Powell was lead author on their Journal of Neuroscience Methods article “An engineered home environment for untethered data telemetry from nonhuman primates.” This design is an important new tool to enable continuous stimulation and recording of neural circuits toward the lab’s goal of chronic neurorehabilitation platforms.
