A new preprint has recently been published in BioRxiv using DBC's high-density silicon probes. The study is entitled "Neural dynamics in the rodent motor cortex enables flexible control of vocal timing" by Arkarup Banerjee, Feng Chen, Shaul Druckmann and Michael A. Long.

ABSTRACT: Neocortical activity is thought to mediate voluntary control over vocal production, but the underlying neural mechanisms remain unclear. In a highly vocal rodent, the Alston’s singing mouse, we investigate neural dynamics in the orofacial motor cortex (OMC), a structure critical for vocal behavior. We first...
