A computer-assisted multi-electrode patch-clamp system

Henry Markram, Rodrigo de Campos Perin

The patch-clamp technique is today the most well-established method for recording electrical activity from individual neurons or their subcellular compartments. Nevertheless, achieving stable recordings, even from individual cells, remains a time-consuming ...

Expanding the primate body schema in sensorimotor cortex by virtual touches of an avatar

Hannes Bleuler, Solaiman Shokur, Miguel Nicolelis

The brain representation of the body, called the body schema, is susceptible to plasticity. For instance, subjects experiencing a rubber hand illusion develop a sense of ownership of a mannequin hand when they view it being touched while tactile stimuli ar ...

Barrel cortex function

Carl Petersen, James Poulet

Neocortex, the neuronal structure at the base of the remarkable cognitive skills of mammals, is a layered sheet of neuronal tissue composed of juxtaposed and interconnected columns. A cortical column is considered the basic module of cortical processing pr ...

Time and the brain: neurorelativity. The chronoarchitecture of the brain from the neuronal rather than the observer's perspective

Frank Scharnowski

Naturally, neuroscientists look at the brain from the outside when measuring how the flow of information unfolds over space and time. A neuron, on the other hand, can only 'see' through its connections, and they are spatiotemporally limited. Hence, the neu ...

Exploring Neural Cell Dynamics with Digital Holographic Microscopy

Pierre Magistretti, Christian Depeursinge, Pierre Marquet

In this review, we summarize how the new concept of digital optics applied to the field of holographic microscopy has allowed the development of a reliable and flexible digital holographic quantitative phase microscopy (DH-QPM) technique at the nanoscale p ...

Neurobehavioural activation during peripheral immunosuppression

Raphaël Doenlen

Like other physiological responses, immune functions are the subject of behavioural conditioning. Conditioned immunosuppression can be induced by contingently pairing a novel taste with an injection of the immunosuppressant cyclosporine A (CsA) in an assoc ...

3D Trajectory Reconstruction of Upper Limb Based on EEG

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Ricardo Andres Chavarriaga Lozano

The main goal of this paper is to simultaneously decode movement velocity of both hand and elbow from electroencephalography (EEG) signals. The result can support motor rehabilitation using a robotic arm and assist people with disabilities to control an up ...

Robo3-Driven Axon Midline Crossing Conditions Functional Maturation of a Large Commissural Synapse

Ralf Schneggenburger, Zsolt Norbert Babai

During the formation of neuronal circuits, axon pathfinding decisions specify the location of synapses on the correct brain side and in correct target areas. We investigated a possible link between axon midline crossing and the subsequent development of ou ...
