A Machine Learning-Based Decoder Framework for the Cortical Voltage-Sensitive Dye Responses to Retinal Neuromorphic Microstimulation: A Proof-of-Concept Simulation Study [PDF]
Intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) is a promising approach for visual prostheses. We recently proposed using retinal neuromorphic spike trains derived from visual images as ICMS pulse sequences, and preliminarily recorded cortical voltage-sensitive ...

Layer-specific parameters of intracortical microstimulation of the somatosensory cortex. [PDF]
Abstract Objective . Intracortical microstimulation of the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) has shown great progress in restoring touch sensations to patients with paralysis. Stimulation parameters such as amplitude, phase duration, and frequency can influence the quality of the evoked percept

Optimal interphase delay in biphasic current pulses facilitates neural circuit activation induced by microstimulation in the mouse visual cortex [PDF]
Cathodic-first biphasic current pulses are commonly employed in intracortical microstimulation. Due to the intricate arrangement of axons, somata, and dendrites in the cerebral cortex, membrane polarizations induced by the cathodic and subsequent anodic ...

Neural mechanisms underlying intracortical microstimulation for sensory restoration. [PDF]
Sensation plays a pivotal role in the orchestration of our daily lives. Intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) can elicit artificial sensations in persons who have lost sensation due to neurological injury or disease. Despite ongoing clinical studies to assess the safety and efficacy of ICMS, the mechanisms underlying neural activation by ICMS and their

Intracortical Microstimulation Modulates Cortical Induced Responses. [PDF]
Recent advances in cortical prosthetics relied on intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) to activate the cortical neural network and convey information to the brain. Here we show that activity elicited by low-current ICMS modulates induced cortical responses to a sensory stimulus in the primary auditory cortex (A1).

Equalization for intracortical microstimulation artifact reduction [PDF]
We present a method for decreasing the duration of artifacts present during intra-cortical microstimulation (ICMS) recordings by using techniques developed for digital communications. We replace the traditional monophasic or biphasic current stimulation pulse with a patterned pulse stream produced by a Zero Forcing Equalizer (ZFE) filter after ...

A computational model that predicts behavioral sensitivity to intracortical microstimulation. [PDF]
Intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) is a powerful tool to investigate the neural mechanisms of perception and can be used to restore sensation for patients who have lost it. While sensitivity to ICMS has previously been characterized, no systematic framework has been developed to summarize the detectability of individual ICMS pulse trains or the ...

Multimodal, longitudinal assessment of intracortical microstimulation. [PDF]
The fundamental obstacle to neuroprostheses based on penetrating microstimulation is the tissue's response to the device insertion and to the application of the electrical stimulation. Our long-term goal is to develop multichannel microstimulation of central nervous tissue for clinical therapy.

High density nanowire electrodes for intracortical microstimulation [PDF]
High-density electrodes with the nano feature size greatly enhance resolution and specificity during intracortical microstimulation. In this viewpoint, we fabricated and developed high-density nanowire (NW) electrodes, ~ 2.45×109 / cm2 that could directly stimulate specific region of the cortex with low current amplitude in the range of 120-180 μA. The
