generated. We used our setup to successfully stimulate 3 cells at frequencies
up to 100 Hz. At such frequencies, spikes evoked at longer latencies >2ms
showed a dramatic decrease in response rate, while short-latency spikes could
be evoked much more reliably.

array were used to stimulate two ganglion cells independently of each other. The spike
responses (arrows) are shown on the left and right, respectively.
