Miniaturised, Wireless and Distributed Neural Interface Toward Cortical Visual Prosthesis

Over the last decades, implantable neural interfaces have been extensively explored and effectively deployed to address neurological and mental health disorders. The existing solutions present several limitations. Firstly, the physical size of the implanta ...

Finding a vocation for validation: taking proteomics beyond association and location

Yimon Aye, Jinmin Liu

First established in the seventies, proteomics, chemoproteomics, and most recently, spatial/proximity-proteomics technologies have empowered researchers with new capabilities to illuminate cellular communication networks that govern sophisticated decision- ...

A modular strategy for next-generation upper-limb sensory-motor neuroprostheses

Silvestro Micera, Solaiman Shokur, Giuseppe Schiavone

Neuroprosthetics is a discipline that aims at restoring lost functions to people affected by a variety of neurological disorders or neuro-traumatic lesions. It combines the expertise of computer science and electrical, mechanical, and micro/nanotechnology ...

Adaptation and Optimization of an Intraneural Electrode to Interface with the Cervical Vagus Nerve

Silvestro Micera, Ivo Strauss

The modulation of the cervical vagus nerve (VN) using neural electrodes has shown great potential to treat cardiovascular, inflammatory, intestinal, or respiratory dysfunctions. Intraneural electrodes have shown great potentials for other neuroprosthetic a ...

Insertion device for inserting deformable prosthesis into an eye

Diego Ghezzi, Charles-Henri Puncho Jérôme Vila

An insertion device (100; 100') for inserting a retinal prosthesis (200) into the eye of a patient comprises: a handle portion (1; 1') arranged to be grasped by a user of the insertion device (100; 100'), a cannula element (12; 12') arranged to be inserted ...

Materials and technologies for soft implantable neuroprostheses

Stéphanie Lacour, Grégoire Courtine

Implantable neuroprostheses are engineered systems designed to restore or substitute function for individuals with neurological deficits or disabilities. These systems involve at least one uni-or bidirectional interface between a living neural tissue and a ...

Biomaterials. Electronic dura mater for long-term multimodal neural interfaces

Silvestro Micera, Stéphanie Lacour, Grégoire Courtine, Quentin Barraud, Léonie Asboth, Eduardo Martin Moraud, Tomislav Milekovic, Marco Capogrosso, Pavel Musienko, Nicolas Vachicouras, Nikolaus Wenger, Jérôme Gandar, Ivan Rusev Minev, Natalia Pavlova, Arthur Edouard Hirsch, Simone Ellen Joze Duis

The mechanical mismatch between soft neural tissues and stiff neural implants hinders the long-term performance of implantable neuroprostheses. Here, we designed and fabricated soft neural implants with the shape and elasticity of dura mater, the protectiv ...

Simulation of epiretinal prostheses - Evaluation of geometrical factors affecting stimulation thresholds

Philippe Renaud, Arnaud Bertsch, Willyan Hasenkamp Carreira, Sri Harsha Kasi Raj, Grégoire Cosendai

Background An accurate understanding of the electrical interaction between retinal prostheses and retinal tissue is important to design effective devices. Previous studies have used modelling approaches to simulate electric fields generated by epiretinal p ...

Long-lasting modulation of feature integration by transcranial magnetic stimulation

Michael Herzog, Frank Scharnowski, Johannes Rüter

The human brain analyzes a visual object first by basic feature detectors. On the objects way to a conscious percept, these features are integrated in subsequent stages of the visual hierarchy. The time course of this feature integration is largely unknown ...
