A hybrid Body-Machine Interface integrating signals from muscles and motions

Camilla Pierella

Objective.Body-Machine Interfaces (BoMIs) establish a way to operate a variety of devices, allowing their users to extend the limits of their motor abilities by exploiting the redundancy of muscles and motions that remain available after spinal cord injury ...

Improving the arm-hand coordination in neuroprosthetics control with prior information from muscle activity

Iason Batzianoulis

Humans use their hands mainly for grasping and manipulating objects, performing simple and dexterous tasks. The loss of a hand may significantly affect one's working status and independence in daily life. A restoration of the grasping ability is important ...

Live imaging screen reveals that TYRO3 and GAK ensure accurate spindle positioning in human cells

Pierre Gönczy, Coralie Busso, Benita Wolf

Proper spindle positioning is crucial for spatial cell division control. Spindle positioning in human cells relies on a ternary complex comprising G alpha i1-3, LGN and NuMA, which anchors dynein at the cell cortex, thus enabling pulling forces to be exert ...

Muscle activities in similar arms performing identical tasks reveal the neural basis of muscle synergies

Martina Coscia

Are the muscle synergies extracted from multiple electromyographic signals an expression of neural information processing, or rather a by-product of mechanical and task constraints? To address this question, we asked 41 right-handed adults to perform a var ...

Nicotine increases sleep spindle activity

Christian O'Reilly

Studies have shown that both nicotine and sleep spindles are associated with enhanced memorisation. Further, a few recent studies have shown how cholinergic input through nicotinic and muscarinic receptors can trigger or modulate sleep processes in general ...

Microneurography as a tool to develop decoding algorithms for peripheral neuro-controlled hand prostheses

Silvestro Micera, Stanisa Raspopovic, Marco Capogrosso, Francesco Maria Petrini, Jacopo Rigosa, Beatrice Barra, Alessandra Pampaloni

Background:The usability of dexterous hand prostheses is still hampered by the lack of natural and effective control strategies. A decoding strategy based on the process-ing of descending efferent neural signals recorded using peripheral neural interfaces ...

Functional imaging of rostrocaudal spinal activity during upper limb motor tasks

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Silvestro Micera, Nawal Noëlle Kinany, Roberto Martuzzi, Elvira Pirondini

The spinal cord is the main interface between the brain and the periphery. It notably plays a central role in motor control, as spinal motoneurons activate skeletal muscles involved in voluntary movements. Yet, the spinal mechanisms underlying human moveme ...
