Led by Dr. Warren Meck and graduate student Ruey Cheng, the lab is beta testing our 15 channel wireless system to record single unit and local field potential data from rats while they are learning to discriminate between different signal durations. The use of psychophysical procedures of this sort allows researchers to identify ‘timing’ neurons in the brain that are associated with the different anchor durations, in Warren’s case… 4s and 16s.

1/16/08 - TBSI announces new Trade-In and Upgrade programs for existing customers to maintain product investment value.

Now, customers that have bought 4 channel and 15 channel wireless systems can trade “up” to 15 channel and 31 channel wireless systems. “We are protecting our customer’s investment with this announcement” said Mike Calarco, Sales and Marketing Director. An example of a trade-in scenario would be a customer that has bought a 15 channel wireless system last year, but now has expanded the parameters of their testing project. With the special pricing of the trade-in program, they can trade-in their 15 channel product for a brand new 31 channel wireless system. This allows customers on limited budgets to expand their testing ranges. Also available are upgrades from 16 channel tethered products to 32 channel tethered products. A future trade-in program has also been announced for customers that currently buy TBSI 8 channel tethered products so they can be confident that their investment will be protected.

The TBSI upgrade program allows customers that have purchased previous versions of our popular hardware to upgrade to a newer version of the same product to take advantage of the latest enhancements. Special pricing will allow customers on a limited budget to maintain the latest version of their favorite hardware products.

For additional information, including available trade-in and upgrade paths and pricing, please contact TBSI at 919-361-2663.
