Abstract
This paper describes the procedure of assembling a miniature microdrive and silicon probe system for surgical implantation into the adult rat brain. S uccessful recordings of single and multiunit activity with parallel depth p rofiles of spontaneous and evoked held potentials are shown. The procedure for histological verification of the position of the silicon probe is descr ibed. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
