R2 System
Recover and reuse your silicon probes — on average across three chronic experiments. Metal microdrives, implantation holders, and the inexpensive replaceable parts that make recovery routine.
A small, lightweight metal microdrive that lets you recover and reuse your silicon probes. The regular arm (3.6 × 8.35 mm) suits standard silicon probes. 7 mm of travel for post-implant adjustment.
The same recoverable metal microdrive with a larger arm (5 × 10 mm) sized for Neuropixels probes. Recover and reuse your probes across experiments, with 7 mm of travel for post-implant adjustment.
A metal implantation system for chronic recordings with Neuropixels 2.0 probes that feature the dovetail caps. Micromachined rails let you attach and detach probes quickly.
Everything you need to prepare, implant, recover and store probes on R2drives and R2rails: the micromachined stainless-steel holder, the stereotactic adapter and the aluminium assembly and storage case. Smaller, stronger and easier to reach during surgery than the 3D-printed holder.
An extra stereotactic adapter for the R2 metal holder: an 8 mm stainless-steel rod that fits common stereotaxes, with its own connector basket. One adapter is already included in the R2 metal implantation system.
An extra micromachined stainless-steel holder for the R2 metal implantation system. Keep one holder per drive, so several probes can stay loaded and ready in their cases.
A heavy-duty aluminium case that aligns your R2drive for easy probe loading, and stores the metal holder with drive and probe between experiments. Included with your first R2 metal implantation system; add one per extra holder.
The original 3D-printed clamp for the rods of common stereotactic probe holders, with two R2Drive holders (regular and mirrored). Superseded by the R2 metal implantation system, which is smaller, grips the drive more firmly and is tightened from above.
The inexpensive, replaceable part that is sacrificed during explantation — so the probe comes out clean and reusable. Three pre-tapped bases, ready for your next implantations.
The four screwdrivers you reach for with the R2drive system — including the Torx T1 used to connect the drive base and body.
Caps & accessories
Protective headgear for freely-moving animals, plus the small parts and tools that ship alongside an R2 setup.
Designed in the Buzsáki lab as a fast, flexible way to protect silicon-probe implants on rats.
Designed in the Buzsáki lab as a fast, flexible way to protect silicon-probe implants on mice. Built around a headplate.
A flexible 3D-printed cage to protect the 3Drive (or other microdrives) in freely-behaving animals.
A piece of extruded copper mesh for building your own headgear — the Buzsáki mouse cap, our crown, or a DREAM implant.
REMY
A complete head-fixation system for awake, behaving rats — frame, holders, implants and surgery tooling.
A complete system for head-fixed behavioural experiments in rats — bringing treadmill / VR task designs and electrophysiology to awake, behaving rats.
Stainless-steel holder used to head-fix awake, behaving rats with the REMY system.
Five implants for the REMY system — each a robust, biocompatible chamber with a metal pole for repeatable head fixation.
Five spare chambers and caps for the REMY system. We recommend chambers be single-use due to wear.
Used for the chamber-implant surgery in the REMY system. Stainless steel, with an 8 mm pole.
