A device for analysis of cells comprises: an integrated circuit arrangement on a substrate; a dielectric layer formed above the integrated circuit arrangement; a microelectrode array layer formed above the dielectric layer, said microelectrode array layer comprising a plurality of individual electrodes, wherein each electrode is connected to the integrated circuit arrangement through a via in the dielectric layer; and wherein a plurality of longitudinal trenches in the dielectric layer and the microelectrode array layer are for stimulating cell growth on a surface of the device

Device for analysis of cells and a method for manufacturing of a device

The present disclosure relates to devices and methods configured to perform drug screening on cells. At least one embodiment relates to a lens-free device for performing drug screening on cells. The lens-free device includes a substrate having a surface. The lens-free device also includes a light source positioned to illuminate the cells, when present, on the substrate surface with a light wave. The lens-free device further includes a sensor positioned to detect an optical signal caused by illuminating the cells. The substrate surface includes a microelectrode array for sensing an electrophysiological signal from the cells.
