Adapting Brain-Like Neural Networks for Modeling Cortical Visual Prostheses [PDF]
Cortical prostheses are devices implanted in the visual cortex that attempt to restore lost vision by electrically stimulating neurons. Currently, the vision provided by these devices is limited, and accurately predicting the visual percepts resulting ...

Neural feedback strategies to improve grasping coordination in neuromusculoskeletal prostheses [PDF]
Conventional prosthetic arms suffer from poor controllability and lack of sensory feedback. Owing to the absence of tactile sensory information, prosthetic users must rely on incidental visual and auditory cues.

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 prostheses and brain plasticity. [PDF]
The success of modern neural prostheses is dependent on a complex interplay between the devices' hardware and software and the dynamic environment in which the devices operate: the patient's body or 'wetware'. Over 120 000 severe/profoundly deaf individuals presently receive information enabling auditory awareness and speech perception from cochlear ...
