In vivo validation of a new portable stimulator for chronic deep brain stimulation in freely moving rats

ConclusionWe successfully developed and validated a new portable and programmable stimulator for freely moving rats that delivers a large range of stimulation parameters using bilateral biphasic current-control and charge balancing to maximize tissue safety. This device can be used to test deep brain stimulation in different animal models of human brain diseases.
