Low-threshold, high-resolution, chronically stable intracortical microstimulation by ultraflexible electrodes [PDF]
Summary: Intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) enables applications ranging from neuroprosthetics to causal circuit manipulations. However, the resolution, efficacy, and chronic stability of neuromodulation are often compromised by adverse tissue ...

Intracortical microstimulation of human somatosensory cortex induces natural perceptual biases [PDF]
Time-order error, a psychophysical phenomenon in which the duration in between successive stimuli alters perception, has been studied for decades by neuroscientists and psychologists. To date, however, the locus of these effects is unknown.

Discriminability of Single and Multichannel Intracortical Microstimulation within Somatosensory Cortex [PDF]
The addition of tactile and proprioceptive feedback to neuroprosthetic limbs is expected to significantly improve the control of these devices. Intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) of somatosensory cortex is a promising method of delivering this ...

Proprioceptive and cutaneous sensations in humans elicited by intracortical microstimulation [PDF]
Pioneering work with nonhuman primates and recent human studies established intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) in primary somatosensory cortex (S1) as a method of inducing discriminable artificial sensation. However, these artificial sensations do not

The Role of Electrode-Site Placement in the Long-Term Stability of Intracortical Microstimulation [PDF]
Intracortical microelectrodes are neuroprosthetic devices used in brain-machine interfaces to both record and stimulate neural activity in the brain. These technologies have been improved by advances in microfabrication, which have led to the creation of

Amplitude- and frequency-dependent activation of layer II/III neurons by intracortical microstimulation [PDF]
Summary: Intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) has been used for the development of brain machine interfaces. However, further understanding about the spatiotemporal responses of neurons to different electrical stimulation parameters is necessary to ...

Responses of Cortical Neurons to Intracortical Microstimulation in Awake Primates. [PDF]
Abstract Intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) is commonly used in many experimental and clinical paradigms; however, its effects on the activation of neurons are still not completely understood. To document the responses of cortical neurons in awake nonhuman primates to stimulation, we recorded single-unit activity while delivering ...

Intracortical microstimulation parameters modulate flight behavior in pigeon [PDF]
Pigeons have a natural affinity for travel by flight. Researchers have recently achieved modulation of pigeon locomotor behaviour by intracortical microstimulation.

Reducing Behavioral Detection Thresholds per Electrode via Synchronous, Spatially-Dependent Intracortical Microstimulation [PDF]
Intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) has shown promise in restoring quality of life to patients suffering from paralysis, specifically when used in the primary somatosensory cortex (S1).
