Neuroprotection in the Retina: From Preventing Inflammatory Cell Death to Promoting Vascular Stability in the Central Nervous System

Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness worldwide. Glaucoma is defined clinically as the presence of optic nerve head (ONH) degeneration and progressive loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). Intra-ocular pressure (IOP) has been con ...

Convolutional neural network classifies visual stimuli from cortical response recorded with wide-field imaging in mice

Silvestro Micera, Daniela De Luca

Objective. The optic nerve is a good location for a visual neuroprosthesis. It can be targeted when a subject cannot receive a retinal prosthesis and it is less invasive than a cortical implant. The effectiveness of an electrical neuroprosthesis depends on ...

Fabrication and validation of an intraneural interface tailored for optic nerve stimulation

Eleonora Borda

Technological progress in materials science and microengineering along with new discoveries in neuroscience have contributed to restore lost or impaired sensory functions by closely interfacing with the nervous system. Electronic devices have begun to be i ...

Deep learning-based analysis of multiple sclerosis lesions with high and ultra-high field MRI

Francesco La Rosa

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common demyelinating disease of the central nervous system and affects almost 3 million people worldwide. There is currently no cure for MS, and its symptoms, starting with fatigue and weakness, often progress over time ...

A machine-learning algorithm correctly classifies cortical evoked potentials from both visual stimulation and electrical stimulation of the optic nerve

Diego Ghezzi, Eleonora Borda, Vivien Gaillet, Elodie Geneviève Zollinger

Objective. Optic nerve's intraneural stimulation is an emerging neuroprosthetic approach to provide artificial vision to totally blind patients. An open question is the possibility to evoke individual non-overlapping phosphenes via selective intraneural op ...

Investigation of electrical stimulation of the optic nerve for artificial vision

Vivien Gaillet

Thanks to recent technological advances in microelectronics and bioengineering, it is now possible to restore lost or impaired sensory modalities by interfering the nervous system with elec-tronic devices and artificially reproducing the electrical encodin ...

Probing myelin content of the human brain with MRI: A review

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Tobias Kober, Tom Hilbert, Gian Franco Piredda

Rapid and efficient transmission of electric signals among neurons of vertebrates is ensured by myelin-insulating sheaths surrounding axons. Human cognition, sensation, and motor functions rely on the integrity of these layers, and demyelinating diseases o ...

Clinical and Genetic Findings of Autosomal Recessive Bestrophinopathy (ARB)

Imen Habibi

Mutations in BEST1 cause several phenotypes including autosomal dominant (AD) Best vitelliform macular dystrophy type 2 (BVMD), AD vitreo-retino-choroidopathy (ADVIRC), and retinitis pigmentosa-50 (RP50). A rare subtype of Bestrophinopathy exists with bial ...

Investigating Single and Multi-Channel Electrical Stimulation of the Optic Nerve for Neuroprosthetic Applications

Silvestro Micera, Diego Ghezzi, Fiorenzo Artoni, Paola Vagni, Vivien Gaillet

Here we demonstrate the ability to selectively activate different portions of the optic nerve with a novel nerve interface, the OpticSELINE, and show the possibility to improve the spatial selectivity of the electrical stimulation using current focusing ac ...

Spatially selective activation of the visual cortex via intraneural stimulation of the optic nerve

Silvestro Micera, Diego Ghezzi, Fiorenzo Artoni, Paola Vagni, Vivien Gaillet, Ariastity Mega Pratiwi, Dario Lipucci Di Paola

Retinal prostheses can restore a functional form of vision in patients affected by dystrophies of the outer retinal layer. Beyond clinical utility, prostheses for the stimulation of the optic nerve, the visual thalamus or the visual cortex could also serve ...
