Experimental Validation of a Hybrid Computational Model for Selective Stimulation Using Transverse Intrafascicular Multichannel Electrodes

Silvestro Micera, Marco Capogrosso, Stanisa Raspopovic

Recently a hybrid model based on the finite element method and on a compartmental biophysical representation of peripheral nerve fibers and intraneural electrodes was developed founded on experimental physiological and histological data. The model appeared ...

Self-Organization of Spinal Reflexes Involving Homonymous, Antagonist and Synergistic Interactions

Recent results in spinal research are challenging the historical view that the spinal reflexes are mostly hardwired and fixed behaviours. In previous work we have shown that three of the simplest spinal reflexes could be self-organised in an agonist-antago ...

SCOUT: Prefetching for Latent Structure Following Queries

Anastasia Ailamaki, Henry Markram, Felix Schürmann, Thomas Heinis, Farhan Tauheed

Today's scientists are quickly moving from in vitro to in silico experimentation: they no longer analyze natural phenomena in a petri dish, but instead they build models and simulate them. Managing and analyzing the massive amounts of data involved in simu ...

Somatosensory control of balance during locomotion in decerebrated cat

Grégoire Courtine, Pavel Musienko

Postmammillary decerebrated cats can generate stepping on a moving treadmill belt when the brain stem or spinal cord is stimulated tonically and the hindquarters are supported both vertically and laterally. While adequate propulsion seems to be generated b ...

Beyond the homunculus: Visual responses of primary somatosensory cortex (S1) neurons to virtual touch of a virtual

Hannes Bleuler, Solaiman Shokur, Miguel Nicolelis, Mikhail Lebedev

Following a brief period of brushing a monkey arm with a real brush, synchronized with the vision of an arm avatar being brushed virtually, neurons in the primary somatosensory and motor cortices began to fire in response to the virtual brushing alone, sug ...

Neuronal Fiber--tracking via optimal mass transportation

Alessandro Daducci

Diffusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a powerful non-invasively method pro- ducing images of biological tissues exploiting the water molecules diffusion into the living tissues under a magnetic field. In the last decade, diffusion MRI data have bee ...

Sleep paralysis in narcolepsy: more than just a motor dissociative phenomenon?

Francesco Manni

Sleep paralyses are viewed as pure motor phenomena featured by a dissociated state in which REM-related muscle atonia coexists with a wakefulness state of full consciousness. We present a 59-year-old man diagnosed with narcolepsy experiencing sleep paralys ...

White-Matter Connectivity between Face-Responsive Regions in the Human Brain

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

Face recognition is of major social importance and involves highly selective brain regions thought to be organized in a distributed functional network. However, the exact architecture of interconnections between these regions remains unknown. We used funct ...

A Programming Workshop using the Robot "Thymio II": The Effect on the Understanding by Children

Francesco Mondada, Michael Bonani, Stéphane Magnenat, Fanny Riedo

Robots are both fascinating objects for the general public and devices whose conception, understanding and pro- gramming involve many fields. This unique combination makes them an ideal tool for introducing science and technology to children. This paper pr ...

Stump nerve signals during transcranial magnetic motor cortex stimulation recorded in an amputee via longitudinal intrafascicular electrodes

Silvestro Micera, Jacopo Rigosa

Do central and peripheral motor pathways associated with an amputated limb retain at least some functions over periods of years? This problem could be addressed by evaluating the response patterns of nerve signals from peripheral motor fibers during transc ...
