Cells are cultivated on top of an organic electrochemical transistor. The activities of the cells can be monitored by characterizing the transistor because the performance of the transistor is sensitive to the surface charge and the morphology of the attached cells due to the electrostatic interaction between the cells and the active layer of the transistor.
