A low-cost programmable pulse generator for physiology and behavior [PDF]
Precisely timed experimental manipulations of the brain and its sensory environment are often employed to reveal principles of brain function. While complex and reliable pulse trains for temporal stimulus control can be generated with commercial ...

A prolonged experimental febrile seizure results in motor map reorganization in adulthood
Introduction: Clinical studies have suggested that children experiencing a febrile seizure (FS) before the age of 1 year have persistent deficits, but it is unknown whether these seizures lead to permanent cortical reorganization and alterations in ...

Implantable Neural Probes for Brain-Machine Interfaces - Current Developments and Future Prospects [PDF]
A Brain-Machine interface (BMI) allows for direct communication between the brain and machines. Neural probes for recording neural signals are among the essential components of a BMI system. In this report, we review research regarding implantable neural

Toward Natural Limb Function: A New Era in Prosthetic Innovation
The past decade has witnessed groundbreaking clinical implementation of neuroprosthetic limbs driven by signals from peripheral targets (eg, nerves and muscle) and the brain to restore limb function for individuals with limb loss or impairment. In this review, we highlight recent key clinical trials in peripheral neuroprosthetic interfaces directly ...

Rewiring of the corticospinal tract in the adult rat after unilateral stroke and anti-Nogo-A therapy [PDF]
The adult CNS has limited potential for functional recovery after structural lesions. Lindau et al. report that a blocking antibody to the neurite-growth inhibitory protein Nogo-A improved functional recovery in a rat sensorimotor cortex stroke model ...

Intact Bilateral Resting-State Networks in the Absence of the Corpus Callosum [PDF]
Temporal correlations between different brain regions in the resting-state BOLD signal are thought to reflect intrinsic functional brain connectivity (Biswal et al., 1995; Greicius et al., 2003; Fox et al., 2007).

Together, an earlier pilot study and the current confirmatory study show that an autologous cellular therapy promotes beneficial, significant enhancement of manual dexterity recovery after lesion of the primary motor cortex. ABSTRACT Introduction A pilot study provided preliminary evidence indicating that peri‐lesional adult autologous neural cell ...
