Nanomaterial-enabled neural stimulation
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2016 Neural stimulation is a critical technique in treating neurological diseases and investigating brain functions. Traditional electrical stimulation uses electrodes to directly create intervening electric fields in the immediate vicinity of neural tissues.

Restoring the encoding properties of a stochastic neuron model by an exogenous noise [PDF]
, 2015 Here we evaluate the possibility of improving the encoding properties of an impaired neuronal system by superimposing an exogenous noise to an external electric stimulation signal. The approach is based on the use of mathematical neuron models consisting

Near physiological spectral selectivity of cochlear optogenetics
Nature Communications, 2019 Cochlear implant spectral resolution is limited by current spread from each stimulation electrode. Here the authors compare optogenetic, electric and acoustic stimulation in gerbils and demonstrate improved spectral resolution of optogenetic over ...
