A Method for Electrophysiological Characterization of Hamster Retinal Ganglion Cells Using a High-Density CMOS Microelectrode Array

Knowledge of neuronal cell types in the mammalian retina is important for the understanding of human retinal disease and the advancement of sight-restoring technology, such as retinal prosthetic devices. A somewhat less utilized animal model for retinal research is the hamster, which has a visual sy...
