A regenerative microchannel device for recording multiple single-unit action potentials in awake, ambulatory animals

Despite significant advances in robotics, commercially advanced prosthetics provide only a small fraction of the functionality of the amputated limb that they are meant to replace. Peripheral nerve interfacing could provide a rich controlling link between ...

Metal-Coated SU-8 Structures for High-Density 3-D Microelectrode Arrays

Carlotta Guiducci, Samuel Kilchenmann, Pietro Maoddi, Enrica Rollo

Electric fields can be effectively used to sense, manipulate, and move particles in lab-on-a-chip devices. Nevertheless, the throughput of such devices is a critical issue, which can be effectively improved by increasing the height of the microchannels. Fo ...

Detection of Movement Related Cortical Potential: Effects of Causal vs. Non-Causal Processing

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Ricardo Andres Chavarriaga Lozano

Movement Related Cortical Potentials (MRCP) have been the subject of numerous studies. They accompany many self-initiated movements and this makes them a good candidate for incorporation in BCI paradigms. In this work we propose a novel experimental protoc ...

Brief wide-field photostimuli evoke and modulate oscillatory reverberating activity in cortical networks

Michele Giugliano

Cell assemblies manipulation by optogenetics is pivotal to advance neuroscience and neuroengineering. In in vivo applications, photostimulation often broadly addresses a population of cells simultaneously, leading to feed-forward and to reverberating respo ...

Enhanced Sensitivity to Rapid Input Fluctuations by Nonlinear Threshold Dynamics in Neocortical Pyramidal Neurons

Wulfram Gerstner, Skander Mensi, Christian Antonio Pozzorini, Olivier Richard Hagens

The way in which single neurons transform input into output spike trains has fundamental consequences for network coding. Theories and modeling studies based on standard Integrate-and-Fire models implicitly assume that, in response to increasingly strong i ...

Towards brain-on-a-chip

Yufei Ren

Since the first compartmentalized neuronal culture described by Robert B. Campenot in 1977, compartmentalized microfluidic devices have been widely used to engineer the cellular environment for cell culture. In previous research by Dr. Anja Kunze, a microf ...

Quantifying the role of motor imagery in brain-machine interfaces

Olaf Blanke, Hannes Bleuler, Andrea Serino, Michela Bassolino, Silvia Marchesotti

Despite technical advances in brain machine interfaces (BMI), for as-yet unknown reasons the ability to control a BMI remains limited to a subset of users. We investigate whether individual differences in BMI control based on motor imagery (MI) are related ...

A brain-spine interface alleviating gait deficits after spinal cord injury in primates

Silvestro Micera, Grégoire Courtine, Jocelyne Bloch, Eduardo Martin Moraud, Quentin Barraud, Tomislav Milekovic, Marco Capogrosso, Fabien Bertrand Paul Wagner, Jérôme Gandar, Jean-Baptiste Mignardot, David Allenson Borton, Simone Ellen Joze Duis, Elodie Rey

Spinal cord injury disrupts the communication between the brain and the spinal circuits that orchestrate movement. To bypass the lesion, brain-computer interfaces(1-3) have directly linked cortical activity to electrical stimulation of muscles, and have th ...

Prospective Coding by Spiking Neurons

Johanni Michael Brea, Walter Senn

Animals learn to make predictions, such as associating the sound of a bell with upcoming feeding or predicting a movement that a motor command is eliciting. How predictions are realized on the neuronal level and what plasticity rule underlies their learnin ...

The use of intracranial recordings to decode human language: Challenges and opportunities

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Stéphanie Martin

Decoding speech from intracranial recordings serves two main purposes: understanding the neural correlates of speech processing and decoding speech features for targeting speech neuroprosthetic devices. Intracranial recordings have high spatial and tempora ...
