Neural and Environmental Modulation of Motivation: What's the Moral Difference? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Interventions that modify a person’s motivations through chemically or physically influencing the brain seem morally objectionable, at least when they are performed nonconsensually.

High‐Spatiotemporal‐Resolution Transparent Thermoelectric Temperature Sensor Arrays Reveal Temperature‐Dependent Windows for Reversible Photothermal Neuromodulation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Thermoelectric temperature sensors are developed that directly measure heat changes during optical‐based neural stimulation with millisecond precision. The sensors reveal the temperature windows for safe reversible neural modulation: 1.4–4.5 °C enables reversible neural inhibition, while temperatures above 6.1 °C cause permanent thermal damage.

Depressed glutamate transporter 1 expression in a mouse model of Dravet syndrome

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2023
Dravet syndrome (DS) is a monogenic, often refractory, epilepsy resultant from SCN1A haploinsufficiency in humans. A novel therapeutic target in DS that can be engaged in isolation or as adjunctive therapy is highly desirable.
