Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an array of electrodes and integrated electronics on a flexible scaffolding, with the ability to collapse into an axial configuration suitable for deploying through a narrow cylindrical channel. The electrode arrays can be placed into the ventricular system of the brain, blood vessels of the brain, and/or into other body cavities, constituting a minimally invasive platform for precise spatial and temporal localization of electrical activity within the brain and/or body, and precise electrical stimulation of tissue, to diagnose and restore function in conditions caused by abnormal electrical activity in the brain, nervous system, and/or elsewhere in the body.
