Microelectrode arrays (MEA) are routinely used in basic and industrial research and development in neuroscience, cardio-vascular research, drug discovery, and neurotechnology.
MEAs have helped to unravel the fundamental physiological functions of the brain, such as memory, learning, circadian rhythms, and neuronal development. Through MEAs, we are beginning to broaden our understanding of cognitive diseases, such as Alzheimer´s disease and epilepsy. Advancements in MEA technology have given new momentum to cardiovascular, stem cell, and retina research.
The biennial MEA Meeting has established itself as the most important international meeting on MEA and Neurochip technology. It is a unique platform for scientific exchange among users and internationally recognized scientists from academia and industry. It attracts biologists, engineers, and physicists from around the globe to Reutlingen.
In 2012, more than 300 scientists with 175 posters and oral presentations attended the meeting. The internationality is also shown in the commercial exhibition with companies from Japan, the USA, Switzerland, and Germany.
In addition to the MEA meeting, in 2014 the 1st Tübingen Neurotech Symposium will address current topics in neurotechnology - from basic research to medical applications.
We looking forward to welcoming you at MEA 2014.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
