33.3 MiBMI: A 192/512-Channel 2.46mm² Miniaturized Brain-Machine Interface Chipset Enabling 31-Class Brain-to-Text Conversion Through Distinctive Neural Codes

Mahsa Shoaran, Uisub Shin, Gregor Rainer, Mohammad Ali Shaeri, Amitabh Yadav

Recently, cutting-edge brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) have revealed the potential of decoders such as recurrent neural networks (RNNs) in predicting attempted handwriting [1] or speech [2], enabling rapid communication recovery after paralysis. However, c ...

Optogenetic Stimulation of Basal Forebrain Parvalbumin Neurons Activates the Default Mode Network and Associated Behaviors

Ralf Schneggenburger, Gregor Rainer, Michael Kintscher, Laura Lozano Montes, Jayakrishnan Harikrishnavilas Raveendran Nair

Activation of the basal forebrain (BF) has been associated with increased attention, arousal, and a heightened cortical representation of the external world. In addition, BF has been implicated in the regulation of the default mode network (DMN) and associ ...

Astrocytic and neuronal oxidative metabolism are coupled to the rate of glutamate-glutamine cycle in the tree shrew visual cortex

Rolf Gruetter, Nathalie Just, Sarah Catherine Sonnay, Gregor Rainer, João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Anne Catherine Clerc

Astrocytes play an important role in glutamatergic neurotransmission, namely by clearing synaptic glutamate and converting it into glutamine that is transferred back to neurons. The rate of this glutamate–glutamine cycle (VNT) has been proposed to couple t ...

Stress Impacts the Regulation Neuropeptides in the Rat Hippocampus and Prefrontal Cortex

Gregor Rainer, Laura Lozano Montes, Nan Zhao

Adverse life experience increases the lifetime risk to several stress-related psychopathologies, such as anxiety or depressive–like symptom following stress in adulthood. However, the neurochemical modulations triggered by stress have not been fully charac ...
