    “The low drift of these manipulators allows us to hold patches for over an hour and the noise-free electronics enables us to record the smallest of connection signals better."
    Dr Thomas Mrsic-Flogel, UCL
    “The small size of the MicroStar manipulators allowed us to fit more manipulators around the rig, improving the yield of the experiments"
    Dr Ho Ko, UCL
