Functional electrical stimulation (FES) and neuronal plasticity: a historical review

open access: yesActa Fisiátrica, 2012
Neurophysiological imaging studies have revealed changes in the pattern of cortical structures and clinical functionality during recovery after brain lesion, thus suggesting a correlation between clinical functional improvements and the plastic changes of the neuronal tissue. However, the interpretation of these results remains equivocal.

Structural and Chemical Engineering of Sub‐Nanochannel Membranes Toward Ion Selectivity

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review summarizes recent advances in structural and chemical engineering of sub‐nanochannels for ion selectivity. We first introduce fundamental ion transport mechanisms within sub‐nanochannels, followed by strategies to tune pore size, geometry, and surface functionalities, categorized into charge‐based, ion‐recognition, hydrophilic bonding, and ...
