Configuration of electrical spinal cord stimulation through real-time processing of gait kinematics

Tomislav Milekovic, Jérôme Gandar, Grégoire Courtine, Nikolaus Wenger, Eduardo Martin Moraud, Pavel Musienko, Marco Capogrosso, Natalia Pavlova, Fabien Bertrand Paul Wagner, Polina Shkorbatova, Jocelyne Bloch

Epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of the spinal cord and real-time processing of gait kinematics are powerful methods for the study of locomotion and the improvement of motor control after injury or in neurological disorders. Here, we describe equipmen ...

Brain-controlled modulation of spinal circuits improves recovery from spinal cord injury

Silvestro Micera, Grégoire Courtine, Marco Bonizzato, Natalia Pavlova, Galyna Pidpruzhnykova, Polina Shkorbatova

The delivery of brain-controlled neuromodulation therapies during motor rehabilitation may augment recovery from neurological disorders. To test this hypothesis, we conceived a brain-controlled neuromodulation therapy that combines the technical and practi ...

Long-term usability and bio-integration of polyimide-based intraneural stimulating electrodes

Sophie Marie Marthe Wurth, Jérôme Gandar, Nawal Noëlle Kinany, Silvestro Micera, Grégoire Courtine, Stanisa Raspopovic, Quentin Barraud, Alessandra Piersigilli, Marco Capogrosso, Natalia Pavlova, Jacopo Rigosa, Polina Shkorbatova

Stimulation of peripheral nerves has transiently restored lost sensation and has the potential to alleviate motor deficits. However, incomplete characterization of the long-term usability and bio-integration of intra-neural implants has restricted their us ...

Spatiotemporal neuromodulation therapies engaging muscle synergies improve motor control after spinal cord injury

Léonie Asboth, Jérôme Gandar, Stéphanie Lacour, Arthur Edouard Hirsch, Silvestro Micera, Grégoire Courtine, Nikolaus Wenger, Ivan Rusev Minev, Rubia van den Brand, Quentin Barraud, Simone Ellen Joze Duis, Eduardo Martin Moraud, Pavel Musienko, Marco Capogrosso, Natalia Pavlova, Julie Kreider, Laetitia Danielle Philippine Baud, Andrea Mortera, Jocelyne Bloch

Electrical neuromodulation of lumbar segments improves motor control after spinal cord injury in animal models and humans. However, the physiological principles underlying the effect of this intervention remain poorly understood, which has limited the ther ...

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

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

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 ...
