High-resolution prosthetic hearing with a soft auditory brainstem implant in macaques

Stéphanie Lacour, Jocelyne Bloch, Ivan Furfaro, Florent-Valéry Coen, Alix Esther Anne Trouillet, Emilie Cornelia Maria Revol, Laurine Kolly, Florian Dylan Fallegger

Individuals with compromised cochlear nerves are ineligible for cochlear implants and instead rely on auditory brainstem implants (ABIs). Most users of ABIs experience sound awareness, which aids in lip reading, yet not speech intelligibility. Here we engi ...

A soft, scalable and adaptable multi-contact cuff electrode for targeted peripheral nerve modulation

Silvestro Micera, Stéphanie Lacour, Katia Galan, Ivan Furfaro, Florian Dylan Fallegger, Valentina Marie Paggi, Olivier Didier Christian Rizzo

Background: Cuff electrodes target various nerves throughout the body, providing neuromodulation therapies for motor, sensory, or autonomic disorders. However, when using standard, thick silicone cuffs, fabricated in discrete circular sizes, complications ...

Deployment of an electrocorticography system with a soft robotic actuator

Stéphanie Lacour, Alix Esther Anne Trouillet, Kyungjin Kim, Florian Dylan Fallegger, Sukho Song

Electrocorticography (ECoG) is a minimally invasive approach frequently used clinically to map epileptogenic regions of the brain and facilitate lesion resection surgery and increasingly explored in brain-machine interface applications. Current devices dis ...

Subdural Soft Electrocorticography (ECoG) Array Implantation and Long-Term Cortical Recording in Minipigs

Stéphanie Lacour, Alix Esther Anne Trouillet, Florian Dylan Fallegger

Neurological impairments and diseases can be diagnosed or treated using electrocorticography (ECoG) arrays. In drug-resistant epilepsy, these help delineate the epileptic region to resect. In long-term applications such as brain-computer interfaces, these ...

Epidural electrical stimulation of the cervical dorsal roots restores voluntary upper limb control in paralyzed monkeys

Stéphanie Lacour, Grégoire Courtine, Jocelyne Bloch, Quentin Barraud, Giuseppe Schiavone, Tomislav Milekovic, Katia Galan, Nicholas David James, Florian Dylan Fallegger

Regaining arm control is a top priority for people with paralysis. Unfortunately, the complexity of the neural mechanisms underlying arm control has limited the effectiveness of neurotechnology approaches. Here, we exploited the neural function of survivin ...
