Objective:The cochlear nucleus (CN) is the target of the auditory brainstem implant (ABI). Most ABI candidates have Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2) and distorted brainstem anatomy from bilateral vestibular schwannomas. The CN is difficult to characterize as ...

LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS2020

Auditory cortex volume and shape differences have been observed in the context of phonetic learning, musicianship and dyslexia. Heschl's gyrus, which includes primary auditory cortex, displays large anatomical variability across individuals and hemispheres ...

Soft microfabricated neural implants: a path towards translational implementation

Nicolas Vachicouras

Neuroprosthetics are a class of medical devices that aim to restore lost or impaired functions of the nervous system by electrical stimulation or recording of neural tissue. State of the art neural implants suffer today from a mechanical mismatch compared ...

The Connection Between the Nervous System and Machines: Commentary

Giacomo Valle

Decades of technological developments have populated the field of brain-machine interfaces and neuroprosthetics with several replacement strategies, neural modulation treatments, and rehabilitation techniques to improve the quality of life for patients aff ...

Microstructured thin-film electrode technology enables proof of concept of scalable, soft auditory brainstem implants

Stéphanie Lacour, Nicolas Vachicouras, Florian Dylan Fallegger, Christina Myra Tringides, Jennifer Mary Adrienne Alice Macron, Valentina Marie Paggi, Yohann Daniel André Thenaisie

Auditory brainstem implants (ABIs) provide sound awareness to deaf individuals who are not candidates for the cochlear implant. The ABI electrode array rests on the surface of the cochlear nucleus (CN) in the brainstem and delivers multichannel electrical ...

Microchannel-based technologies for nerve interfacing

Sandra Gribi

Biomedical technologies in neuroprosthetics are made to restore or replace functions from the nervous system, as well as alleviate pathological conditions. Peripheral nerve interfaces use neuromodulatory techniques to inhibit pain or depression, prevent ep ...

EPFL2019

Spinal cord injury (SCI) disrupts communication within central nervous system and lead to range of neurological disorders including paralysis. Current rehabilitation strategies to restore locomotion are poorly effective in people with severe SCI. Epidural ...

Implantable Neural Interfaces and Wearable Tactile Systems for Bidirectional Neuroprosthetics Systems

Silvestro Micera

Neuroprosthetics and neuromodulation represent a promising field for several related applications in the central and peripheral nervous system, such as the treatment of neurological disorders, the control of external robotic devices, and the restoration of ...

A closed-loop hand prosthesis with simultaneous intraneural tactile and position feedback

Silvestro Micera, Stanisa Raspopovic, Francesco Maria Petrini, Ivo Strauss, Giacomo Valle, Francesco Iberite, Edoardo D'Anna

Current myoelectric prostheses allow transradial amputees to regain voluntary motor control of their artificial limb by exploiting residual muscle function in the forearm. However, the overreliance on visual cues resulting from a lack of sensory feedback i ...

AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE2019

The auditory brainstem implant (ABI) was first developed nearly 40 years ago and provides auditory rehabilitation to patients who are deaf and ineligible for cochlear implant surgery due to abnormalities of the cochlea and cochlear nerve. The aims of the f ...
