Abstract
A method includes simultaneously measuring electrophysiological responses and contractility responses of a plurality of cells forming a tissue culture using a system comprising a sensor array configured to simultaneously measure the electrophysiological responses and the contractility responses of the plurality of cells forming the tissue culture. Fabrication techniques for making such systems include: forming a sensor array comprising an interpenetrating arrangement of IDEs and electrodes of a MEA in or on a substrate surface; forming a plurality of contacts for interfacing the system with one or more external devices in or on the substrate surface; and forming leads between the plurality of contacts and the sensor array.
