Rewiring neural interactions by micro-stimulation
Plasticity is a crucial component of normal brain function and a critical mechanism for recovery from injury. In vitro, associative pairing of presynaptic spiking and stimulus-induced postsynaptic depolarization causes changes in the synaptic efficacy ...

Hearing the light: neural and perceptual encoding of optogenetic stimulation in the central auditory pathway [PDF]
Optogenetics provides a means to dissect the organization and function of neural circuits. Optogenetics also offers the translational promise of restoring sensation, enabling movement or supplanting abnormal activity patterns in pathological brain ...

Intracortical microstimulation induces rapid microglia process convergence
AbstractIntracortical microstimulation (ICMS) has demonstrated the potential to restore vision and hearing by stimulating relevant cortical regions in both animals and humans, offering significant clinical promise for sensory restoration. While the neuronal response to ICMS has been extensively studied at the cellular level through electrophysiology ...

The functional consequences of chronic, physiologically effective intracortical microstimulation
Many studies have demonstrated the ability of chronically implanted multielectrode arrays (MEAs) to extract information from the motor cortex of both humans and nonhuman primates. Similarly, many studies have shown the ability of intracortical microstimulation to impart information to the brain via a single or a few electrodes acutely implanted in ...

Corticospinal Tract Development, Evolution, and Skilled Movements
Abstract The evolution of the corticospinal tract (CST) is closely linked to the development of skilled voluntary movements in mammals. The main evolutionary divergence concerns the position of the CST within the spinal cord white matter and its postsynaptic targets in the grey matter.

Intraneural stimulation elicits discrimination of textural features by artificial fingertip in intact and amputee humans. [PDF]
Restoration of touch after hand amputation is a desirable feature of ideal prostheses. Here, we show that texture discrimination can be artificially provided in human subjects by implementing a neuromorphic real-time mechano-neuro-transduction (MNT ...

In Vivo Voltage-Sensitive Dye Study of Lateral Spreading of Cortical Activity in Mouse Primary Visual Cortex Induced by a Current Impulse. [PDF]
In the mammalian primary visual cortex (V1), lateral spreading of excitatory potentials is believed to be involved in spatial integrative functions, but the underlying cortical mechanism is not well understood.

Connecting the Brain to Itself through an Emulation. [PDF]
Pilot clinical trials of human patients implanted with devices that can chronically record and stimulate ensembles of hundreds to thousands of individual neurons offer the possibility of expanding the substrate of cognition.
