Today,so many brain-related diseases are killing us - not to mention costing us a fortune. Shouldn't we be encouraging kids to take an interest in studying the brain? Here's a clever way to get them started. Backyard Brains SpikerBox is enough fun to seem like an awesome (and awesomely gross!) toy to a young person, but it's serious science in a box. If you're looking for the perfect gift for your smartest nieces and nephews, this is a doozy. Please get the SpikerBox for those bright youngsters NOW because the clock is ticking. I desperately want a new young army of brain researchers to figure out how to cure Alzheimer's before I'm diagnosed with it. Review: Brilliant Concept, Flawless Execution! - Most science "toys" assume that children just aren't that bright - this is the kind of thing I dreamed of as a kid and wished I could get my hands on. I am buying it for all the kids I know know for Christmas. ## Features - EXPERIENCE NEUROSCIENCE: Learn the fundamental principles of neuroscience by performing real experiments! - A GREAT GIFT: The Neuron SpikerBox is beginner and youth friendly, making it a great gift for all science lovers! - EASY TO USE: Everything you need is included to perform over 20 experiments! Record and manipulate live neurons! Just add an insect! - A REVOLUTIONARY INVENTION: Never before have students been able to perform real neuroscience experiments at home! Win your Science Fair, impress your teachers, or introduce your students to the world of hands-on neuroscience! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B007U9BEBS | | Age Range Description | Baby | | Battery Description | Alkaline or Lithium | | Best Sellers Rank | #950,187 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #7,845 in Educational Science Kits | | Brand Name | Backyard Brains | | Customer Reviews | 5.0 5.0 out of 5 stars (5) | | Educational Objective | STEM | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00609207079392 | | Is Assembly Required | No | | Item Dimensions | 5.25 x 6.5 x 3.25 inches | | Manufacturer | Backyard Brains | | Manufacturer Maximum Age (MONTHS) | 36 | | Manufacturer Part Number | SpikerBox.v.1.3c | | Material Type | Metal | | Model Number | SB-001.3c | | Size | 6.5 x 5.25 x 3.25 inches | | Theme | Biology | | UPC | 609207079392 | ## Images ![Backyard Brains Neuron SpikerBox: Neuroscience in a Box - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51a03D39lrL.jpg) ![Backyard Brains Neuron SpikerBox: Neuroscience in a Box - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/513PiJn1x7L.jpg) ![Backyard Brains Neuron SpikerBox: Neuroscience in a Box - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/511hjq29a8L.jpg) ![Backyard Brains Neuron SpikerBox: Neuroscience in a Box - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41phAjQ4viL.jpg) ![Backyard Brains Neuron SpikerBox: Neuroscience in a Box - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41vj73siAtL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can I use this spikerbox to see the electrical waves on dionea muscipula? Converting the end of the Slim cable with a earh electrohode and a electrpho** A: Unfortunately you can't, but you can use our Plant SpikerBox for that! The difference is the frequency range of the Neuron SpikerBox is too high for the dionea muscipula. **Q: Why don’t you sell your products on Amazon India?** A: We are currently selling only on Amazon.com and on our website backyardbrains.com If there is anything you need, please contact us at hello@backyardbrains.com **Q: Is this really just volt meter ?** A: The Neuron Spikerbox is designed to detect/pickup neuron spikes between the cells. PCB setup between Neuron Spikerbox & regular voltmeter is completely different. **Q: Is this the one in the ted were you can control someone's arm?** A: Hello! No, it is not. This product is called Neuron SpikerBox. The Neuron SpikerBox is a bioamplifier that allows you to hear and see real-time electrical "spikes", or action potentials, of live, signalling neurons in invertebrates. You can see co-founder Greg Gage on the TED stage demonstrating use of the Neuron SpikerBox for recording signals from a cockroach: https://youtu.be/tr4gWi9Jf6k Product that you are referring to is called Human Human Interface and you can find it here - https://backyardbrains.com/products/HHI Best regards, ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The 21st Century's "Chemistry Set" for Neuroscience *by R***H on November 13, 2013* When I was a kid in the 1950s, parents tried to encourage kids to become junior scientists by giving them Chemistry Sets.

I am buying it for all the kids I know know for Christmas. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Intro to Neurophysiology *by T***4 on April 24, 2012* This is not a toy - it is a scaled down version of the kind of expensive equipment that a scientist would use to monitor the activity of the nervous system. I am a neuroscientist, and I purchased two SpikerBoxes. Individually they allow my undergraduate students to hear neurons firing. Paired with a computer (and some free software such as Audacity) or with an iphone (and a free app from Backyard Brains) the SpikerBoxes allow my students to see neural impulses. When "piggy-backed" with a simple adapter kit available from the makers the two SpikerBoxes serve as a two-channel differential amplifier that (when coupled with a computer) allows the speed of neural signals to be measured. I have successfully recorded action potentials ("spikes") from cockroaches, adult meal worms, and earthworms. There is considerable discussion about whether these invertebrates feel pain, or anything else for that matter. (Yes, they react to various stimuli, but whether they have any subjective experience that might be called "feeling" is very difficult to determine.) The makers of the SpikerBox are sensitive to this, and encourage the anesthetization of the invertebrates as they are prepared for use. I agree with this approach, and urge adults to review the proposed methods of anesthetization (ice water, alcohol, or even soda water) and oversee the use of the device by children. Used properly, the SpikerBox will not only teach people about the nervous system, but it will also encourage respect for, and the proper treatment of, nonhuman animals used for research. All in all, a great product that might lead more students into neuroscience. ## Frequently Bought Together - Backyard Brains Neuron SpikerBox: Neuroscience in a Box - Horizon Group USA Bluey Aqua Art - Reusable Water Reveal Activity Pages With Water Pen for No-Mess Drawing and Coloring - LEGO Disney Advent Calendar 2024 for Kids - Christmas Advent Calendar W/Mini Builds & 8 Minifigures, Ages 5+ - Disney Toys Gift Idea for Girls & Boys - 43253 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/35086271-backyard-brains-neuron-spikerbox-neuroscience-in-a-box](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/35086271-backyard-brains-neuron-spikerbox-neuroscience-in-a-box) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
