Sumario:[Objective] Brain–computer interfaces (BCI) are promising for severe neurological conditions and there are ongoing efforts to develop state-of-the-art neural interfaces, hardware, and software tools. We tested the potential of novel reduced graphene oxide (rGO) electrodes implanted epidurally over the hind limb representation of the primary somatosensory (S1) cortex of rats, and compared them to commercial platinum–iridium (Pt–Ir) 16-channel electrodes (active site diameter: 25 μm).
