# A title to describe the published resource.
title: "Construction and use of an accurate positioning-µCP device"

# Additional information about the resource, e.g., a brief abstract.
description: |
  This repository accompanies the manuscript Samhaber et al. J Neurosc Methods 2016.
  It contains detailed instructions for building a micro contact printing (μCP) machine 
  and for using it to spatially structure neuronal cultures. Its purpose is to allow 
  any lab without access to a lithography facility to structure cultures of neurons with 
  the method developed in our group. It contains details of the preparation of neuronal 
  cultures, all protocols used, and the construction of the μCP machine including all CAD files.
