Mechanics of very slow human walking

Auke Ijspeert, Amy Roning Wu, Cole Stewart Simpson

Human walking speeds can be influenced by multiple factors, from energetic considerations to the time to reach a destination. Neurological deficits or lower-limb injuries can lead to slower walking speeds, and the recovery of able-bodied gait speed and beh ...

Brain networks and their relevance for stroke rehabilitation

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Philipp Johannes Koch

Stroke has long been regarded as focal disease with circumscribed damage leading to neurological deficits. However, advances in methods for assessing the human brain and in statistics have enabled new tools for the examination of the consequences of stroke ...

Materials and technologies for soft implantable neuroprostheses

Stéphanie Lacour, Grégoire Courtine

Implantable neuroprostheses are engineered systems designed to restore or substitute function for individuals with neurological deficits or disabilities. These systems involve at least one uni-or bidirectional interface between a living neural tissue and a ...

Neurological and Robot-Controlled Induction of an Apparition

Olaf Blanke, Hannes Bleuler, Bruno Herbelin, Andrea Serino, Roy Salomon, Giulio Rognini, Lukas Heydrich, Polona Pozeg, Masayuki Hara

Tales of ghosts, wraiths, and other apparitions have been reported in virtually all cultures. The strange sensation that somebody is nearby when no one is actually present and cannot be seen (feeling of a presence, FOP) is a fascinating feat of the human m ...

The Brain Network reflecting Bodily Self-Consciousness: a functional connectivity study

Olaf Blanke, Roy Salomon, Roberto Martuzzi, Silvio Ionta

Several brain regions are important for processing self-location and first-person perspective, two important aspects of bodily self-consciousness. However, the interplay between these regions has not been clarified. In addition, while self-location and fir ...

New Evidence of Neuroprotection by Lactate after Transient Focal Cerebral Ischaemia: Extended Benefit after Intracerebroventricular Injection and Efficacy of Intravenous Administration

Pierre Magistretti, Ximena Castillo

Background: Lactate protects mice against the ischaemic damage resulting from transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) when administered intracerebroventricularly at reperfusion, yielding smaller lesion sizes and a better neurological outcome 48 h ...

Systemic inflammation disrupts the developmental program of white matter

Yohan Van de Looij, Elie Saliba

Perinatal inflammation is a major risk factor for neurological deficits in preterm infants. Several experimental studies have shown that systemic inflammation can alter the programming of the developing brain. However, these studies do not offer detailed p ...

Impaired Imagery for Upper Limbs

Olaf Blanke

The brain processes associated with mental imagery have long been a matter of debate. Neuroimaging and neuropsychological studies have yielded diverging evidence of mental transformation activating the right hemisphere, the left hemisphere, or both. Here, ...
