Soft multimodal neural interfaces for unravelling sensory neurological circuits

Diseases or injuries affecting the nervous system can dramatically disrupt the quality of life. Despite extensive efforts towards treating dysfunctional nervous systems, the pharmacological and electrical approaches generally involved lack the temporal and ...

Optogenetic Peripheral Nerve Immunogenicity

Optogenetic technologies have been the subject of great excitement within the scientific community for their ability to demystify complex neurophysiological pathways in the central (CNS) and peripheral nervous systems (PNS). The excitement surrounding opto ...

Layer, cell-type and pathway-specific thalamocortical input to mouse somatosensory cortex

Berat Semihcan Sermet

In the mouse whisker system, sensory information is relayed to the whisker somatosensory cortex by two major thalamic nuclei, the ventral posterior medial nucleus (VPM) and the posterior medial nucleus (POM). While the cortical axonal innervation pattern o ...

CuInGaS2 photocathodes treated with SbX3 (X = Cl, I): the effect of the halide on solar water splitting performance

Kevin Sivula, Nestor Guijarro Carratala, Florian Le Formal, Xavier Adrian Jeanbourquin, Xiaoyun Yu, Mathieu Steven Prévot, Pauline Bornoz, Wiktor Stefan Bourée

The realization of photoelectrochemical tandem cells for efficient solar-to-hydrogen energy conversion is currently impeded by the lack of inexpensive, stable, and efficient photocathodes. The family of sulfide chalcopyrites (CuInxGa1-xS2) has recently dem ...

Mechanism of ultrafast non-reactive deactivation of the retinal chromophore in non-polar solvents

Goran Zgrablic

The photoisomerization of the all-trans protonated Schiff base of retinal (SBR+) in solution is highly inefficient. The present theoretical and experimental investigation aims at disclosing the mechanisms of ultrafast, non-reactive relaxation of SBR+ that ...

Polarizable embedding with a multiconfiguration short-range density functional theory linear response method

We present here the coupling of a polarizable embedding (PE) model to the recently developed multiconfiguration short-range density functional theory method (MC-srDFT), which can treat multiconfigurational systems with a simultaneous account for dynamical ...

Optogenetic stimulation of the cochlear nucleus using channelrhodopsin-2 evokes activity in the central auditory pathways

Stéphanie Lacour

Optogenetics has become an important research tool and is being considered as the basis for several neural prostheses. However, few studies have applied optogenetics to the auditory brainstem. This study explored whether optical activation of the cochlear ...

Red and NIR light dosimetry in the human deep brain

Georges Wagnières, Matthieu Philippe Emmanuel Zellweger, Blaise Lovisa

Photobiomodulation (PBM) appears promising to treat the hallmarks of Parkinson's Disease (PD) in cellular or animal models. We measured light propagation in different areas of PD-relevant deep brain tissue during transcranial, transsphenoidal illumination ...

Detection of Optogenetic Stimulation in Somatosensory Cortex by Non-Human Primates - Towards Artificial Tactile Sensation

Fabien Bertrand Paul Wagner, David Allenson Borton

Neuroprosthesis research aims to enable communication between the brain and external assistive devices while restoring lost functionality such as occurs from stroke, spinal cord injury or neurodegenerative diseases. In future closed-loop sensorimotor prost ...

Generalized QM/MM Force Matching Approach Applied to the 11-cis Protonated Schiff Base Chromophore of Rhodopsin

Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, Pablo Campomanes Ramos

We extended a previously developed force matching approach to systems with covalent QM/MM boundaries and describe its user-friendly implementation in the publicly available software package CPMD. We applied this approach to the challenging case of the reti ...
