    Abstract: An electrochemical apparatus includes an array of pixels disposed on a chip, stimulator circuitry disposed on the chip and configured to provide electrical input signals to cause stimulation of the pixels of the array, and sensor circuitry disposed on the chip and configured to read electrical output signals from the pixels of the array. The stimulator circuitry is configured to provide the input signals to cause stimulation of the pixels individually, and the sensor circuitry is configured to selectively read the output signals from the pixels while the pixels are being stimulated. The sensor circuitry is configured to measure an open-circuit voltage at each of the pixels and a current flow at each of the pixels while the pixels are being stimulated by the stimulator circuitry. The open-circuit voltage may be measured while the current flow is being measured.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for monitoring the activity of electrogenic networks are described. One representative system includes an array of electrode coupled to an analyzer having a stimulator and a receiver. The electrode is placed in contact with an electrogenic cell. The electrodes can be shaped as nanowires, tubes, cavities and/or cones. The analyzer may be configured to operate in a voltage stimulation mode, in which the cells are stimulated via voltages and monitored via current, or in a current stimulation mode, in which the cells are stimulated via currents and monitored via voltages. The analyzers may be arranged as single-stage amplifiers, and may include a feedback loop shared between the stimulation signal path and the sensing signal path. The feedback loop may be arranged to provide overlapping stimulation and sensing of the electrogenic network's cells.
