Abstract
Recent advances in More than Moore technology enable close inspection of and even direct interfacing to living cells. This paper illustrates this through three use cases. In the first use case, the type or quality of billions of cells is quickly inspected in a fluidic medium. Secondly, the effect of potential drugs is monitored in neural cell cultures. In the third use case, neural brain activity is recorded in vivo using implantable electrodes to understand how the brain functions.
