- Neuron Activity Recorder – University of California San Diego engineers made nanowires that can record neuron activity
- High Resolution – Measure multiple neurons at same time with high sensitivity and resolution
- Drug Screening – Could screen drugs for neurological diseases and enable researchers to study inter-neuron communication in brain
- Non-Destructive – Poke inside cells without damaging them, unlike existing state-of-the-art methods which can break cell membrane and kill cells
- Brain Implant – Ultimate goal is to introduce brain implant device, which in future can bridge or repair neurons
