Stimuli‐Responsive Materials for Biomedical Applications
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Stimulus‐responsive materials (SRMs) hold great promise for use in a wide range of biomedical applications. This review covers four stimulus modalities, namely, electrical, optical, magnetic, and ultrasound, and their associated SRMs. It provides a summary of the materials in each modality, their development, and current research perspectives.

Thalamic interactions of cerebellum and basal ganglia
Brain Structure and Function, 2017 Cerebellum and basal ganglia are reciprocally interconnected with the neocortex via oligosynaptic loops. The signal pathways of these loops predominantly converge in motor areas of the frontal cortex and are mainly segregated on subcortical level. Recent

3D Printing of Conducting Polymer Hydrogels for Electrostimulation‐Assisted Tissue Engineering
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This review highlights nanosized inherently conducting polymers (ICPs) as promising ink constituents for 3D printing of conducting hydrogel (CH)‐based electrostimulation (ES) devices. ICP‐based ink formulation, 3D printing, and solidification strategies are discussed, along with the application of 3D‐printed ICP‐based CHs as ES platforms for regulating

Effects of dance therapy on balance, gait and neuro-psychological performances in patients with Parkinson's disease and postural instability [PDF]
, 2012 Postural Instability (PI) is a core feature of Parkinson’s Disease (PD) and a major cause of falls and disabilities. Impairment of executive functions has been called as an aggravating factor on motor performances. Dance therapy has been shown effective

Dissociation of metabolic and hemodynamic levodopa responses in the 6-hydroxydopamine rat model
Neurobiology of Disease, 2016 Dissociation of vasomotor and metabolic responses to levodopa has been observed in human subjects with Parkinson's disease (PD) studied with PET and in autoradiograms from 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) rat. In both species, acute levodopa administration was
