https://edspace.american.edu/openbehavior/project/hope/

Portal provides brain implant developed by MIT scientists. Implant carries 16 movable tetrodes along with two optic fibers or two injection cannulas. Designed with help of 3D CAD software, allowing modifications for various experimental needs, such as targeting different brain regions and use in other animal species (e.g., rats and non-human primates). Implant can be designed to shape of skull of individual monkeys based on pre-implantation magnetic resonance imaging, thus optimizing fit with skull surface and making recording from deep brain regions more reliable.
