The mechanical stretching of neurons in the brain or spinal cord is the root cause of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and spinal cord injury (SCI). Mechanical strain is also an important cue for the differentiation of stem cells. It is currently not possible for in vitro models of TBI, SCI, or in tissue engineering to carry out electrophysiological measurements while stretching the cells. BMSEED's MicroElectrode Array Stretching Stimulating und Recording Equipment (MEASSuRE) enables this capability by incorporating microelectrodes that stretch and relax elastically with the cells.
