Functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to assess cognitive function in infants in rural Africa [PDF]
Cortical mapping of cognitive function during infancy is poorly understood in low-income countries due to the lack of transportable neuroimaging methods. We have successfully piloted functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) as a neuroimaging tool in

Molecular Structure and Modeling of Water-Air and Ice-Air Interfaces Monitored by Sum-Frequency Generation. [PDF]
From a glass of water to glaciers in Antarctica, water-air and ice-air interfaces are abundant on Earth. Molecular-level structure and dynamics at these interfaces are key for understanding many chemical/physical/atmospheric processes including the ...

Extracting heartrate from optical signal of functional near-infrared spectroscopy based on mathematical morphology [PDF]
Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), as a new optical functional neuroimaging method, has been widely used in neuroscience research. In some research fields with NIRS, heartrate (HR) (or heartbeat) is needed as useful information to evaluate ...

Functional near-infrared spectroscopy for intraoperative brain mapping [PDF]
Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a relatively new seizure-free technique and its value for intraoperative brain mapping is unknown. We examine the feasibility of fNIRS for intraoperative functional brain mapping. A 1 × 1 cm 2 density fNIRS probe specially designed for intraoperative use was used to map brain function in adult ...

Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy in Human-Robot Interaction [PDF]
Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a promising new tool for research in human-robot interaction (HRI). The technology has already been used for brain-robot interfaces to affect robots' behaviors and as an evaluation tool for assessing brain activity during interactions.
