    This document discusses the design of a silicone electrode attachment mechanism. The original design included a 3-axis micromanipulator, horizontal actuator, extension with slider, and chip box. The new design details improvements like stress testing the extension to support the actuator and probe weight. Validation plans include verifying accurate electrode insertion within 100um, the extension's ability to insert the entire 10mm probe shank, and stability of moving parts. The project status provides updates on assembling the extension, accessories, and integrating it into the experimental setup. Future steps are to construct the probe support, optimize the insertion angle, and conduct verification and validation testing.

    Project Reminder
    Need Statement:
    Neuroscientists who study neural networks would benefit from the creation of a
    quick and easy way to insert a Neuropixels probe into brain tissue samples to obtain
    extracellular recordings that would provide more information about how neurons
    interact with each other.
