Researchers have presented an update to their original nanoscale device for intracellular recording, the first nanotechnology developed to record electrical chatter inside a living cell. The scientists have used many copies of the updated nanoscale device to record intracellular signals in neural and cardiac cells in culture with the same level of precision as the device’s biggest competitor: patch clamp electrodes.
