Spinal cord injury (SCI), second only to stroke, is the leading cause of paralysis. Therapies based on electrical stimulation of the spinal cord and other locomotor areas of the Nervous System improve motor control in people with neurotrauma. Neuromodulati ...
Regenerative peripheral nerve interfaces are particularly invasive implant devices. They rely on the growth of axons from transected nerve stumps through electrode-bearing structures in order to establish highly efficient communication channels with the ne ...
Neurotechnology is the application of scientific knowledge to the practical purpose of understanding, interacting and/or repairing the brain or, in a broader sense, the nervous system. The development of novel approaches to decode functional information fr ...
Described herein are microelectrode array devices, and methods of fabrication and use of the same, to provide highly localized and efficient electrical stimulation of a neurological target. The device includes multiple microelectrode elements arranged alon ...
The idea that intentions make the difference between voluntary and non-voluntary behaviors is simple and intuitive. At the same time, we lack an understanding of how voluntary actions actually come about, and the unquestioned appeal to intentions as discre ...
SMN (Survival Motor Neuron) deficiency is the predominant cause of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a severe neurodegenerative disorder that can lead to progressive paralysis and death. Although SMN is required in every cell for proper RNA metabolism, the re ...
Human cell reprogramming technologies offer access to live human neurons from patients and provide a new alternative for modeling neurological disorders in vitro. Neural electrical activity is the essence of nervous system function in vivo. Therefore, we e ...
The treatment of disorders of the nervous system poses a major clinical challenge. Development of neuromodulation (i.e., interfacing electronics to nervous tissue to modulate its function) has provided patients with neuronal-related deficits a new tool to ...
Parkinson disease (PD) is characterized by the selective loss of dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc). Although growing evidence indicates that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is a hallmark of PD, its exact contribution to th ...
Methylated arsenic (As) species represent a significant fraction of the As accumulating in rice grains, and there are geographic patterns in the abundance of methylated arsenic in rice that are not understood. The microorganisms driving As biomethylation i ...
