Adaptation and Optimization of an Intraneural Electrode to Interface with the Cervical Vagus Nerve

Silvestro Micera, Ivo Strauss

The modulation of the cervical vagus nerve (VN) using neural electrodes has shown great potential to treat cardiovascular, inflammatory, intestinal, or respiratory dysfunctions. Intraneural electrodes have shown great potentials for other neuroprosthetic a ...

Computational model of the dorsal horn circuitry for innocuous touch

Silvestro Micera, Simone Romeni

Providing a naturalistic tactile sensory feedback is currently one of the key challenges in neuroprosthetics. Modeling has played a fundamental role in the development of "biomimetic" stimulation protocols, determining optimal activation patterns to be eli ...

Advanced Neurotechnologies for the Restoration of Motor Function

Silvestro Micera, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel

Stroke is one of the leading causes of long-term disability. Advanced technological solutions ("neurotechnologies'') exploiting robotic systems and electrodes that stimulate the nervous system can increase the efficacy of stroke rehabilitation. Recent stud ...

You, Cyborg ? Prosthetic Hybridation in Science-fiction Short Stories

While science fiction has disseminated the Cyborg's concept in an vein of epic heroism, its literary history, from Cordwainer Smith to Martin Caitlin and Frederik Pohl, shows that it challenges constantly its ideal of continuity. From the start, the space ...

Identity and Personhood in Digital Democracy: Evaluating Inclusion, Equality, Security, and Privacy in Pseudonym Parties and Other Proofs of Personhood

Bryan Alexander Ford

Digital identity seems at first like a prerequisite for digital democracy: how can we ensure “one person, one vote” online without identifying voters? But the full gamut of digital identity solutions – e.g., online ID checking, biometrics, self-sovereign i ...

Reactivation of Recall-Induced Neurons in the Infralimbic Cortex and the Basolateral Amygdala After Remote Fear Memory Attenuation

Johannes Gräff, Ossama Mohamed Salah El-Dien El-Sayed Ibrahim Khalaf

Whether the attenuation of traumatic memories is mediated through the suppression of the original memory trace of fear by a new memory trace of safety, or through an updating of the original fear trace towards safety has been a long-standing question at th ...

Information-based recognition: TED talks and the institutional fabric of valuable innovation

Gianluigi Viscusi, Heidi Christina Gautschi

Information has long been considered a commodity, something that organizations and individuals can trade for financial gain (Chandler, 1993). And, the networks via which information flowed have long had a conflictual relationship with power and control, bu ...

Learning Compliant Manipulation through Kinesthetic and Tactile Human-Robot Interaction

Aude Billard, Klas Jonas Alfred Kronander

Robot Learning from Demonstration (RLfD) has been identified as a key element for making robots useful in daily lives. A wide range of techniques has been proposed for deriving a task model from a set of demonstrations of the task. Most previous works use ...
