A neuro-probe is a needle-like probe used to collect signals from a brain. Suppose the neuro- probe is a flexible one with a Young's modulus of 3 GPa, and a rectangular cross-sectional area of 20 μm x 3 μm with a length of 2.1 mm (where, i = [i, - ig], i.e., the difference between the 7th and 8th digits of your Student ID).
