An Ultra‐Flexible Neural Electrode with Bioelectromechanical Compatibility and Brain Micromotion Detection

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Neural electrodes face a mechanical mismatch with brain tissue. This study proposes a bioelectromechanical coupling strategy using an ultra‐flexible electrode designed for synchronized motion. Optimized to match brain tissue stiffness, it achieves dual signal acquisition and micromotion sensing, with characterized interfacial forces and piezoresistive ...

From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Neuroendoscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robotic assistance has had minimal impact on deep intraventricular surgeries, where small‐scale, precision, and reduced invasiveness can contribute to improved patient outcomes. Emerging technologies in rigid, soft, and hybrid robotics are reviewed to identify the most promising mechanisms for deep brain navigation in addition to an attempt to identify

Sleep Alters the Velocity of Physiological Brain Pulsations in Humans

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sleep alters I/CSF oscillatory flow, driven by increased respiratory (29%) and vasomotor pulsation (21%) velocities, while cardiovascular pulsations decreased by (22%). Velocity is quantified using optical flow analysis of MREG data. Spectral power increases alongside these pulsations (spatial correlation, r = 0.35 and r = 0.39, respectively ...
