Closed-loop deep brain stimulation by pulsatile delayed feedback with increased gap between pulse phases

Scientific Reports, 2017
Computationally it was shown that desynchronizing delayed feedback stimulation methods are effective closed-loop techniques for the control of synchronization in ensembles of interacting oscillators. We here computationally design stimulation signals for

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

, 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.

Prior Expectations Bias Confidence Judgments Through Parietal Alpha‐Band Modulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Humans possess the metacognitive ability to estimate the likely accuracy of their own decisions through confidence judgments. Yet, whether prior information shapes confidence and the neural mechanisms mediating such influence, remain to be determined.

Oxytocin’s social and stress-regulatory effects in children with autism and intellectual disability: a protocol for a randomized placebo-controlled trial

BMC Psychiatry
Background Oxytocin is increasingly considered as a new pharmacological option for mitigating social difficulties and regulating stress in autism spectrum disorder. However, in prior trials, autistic individuals with co-occurring intellectual disability (

Decoding Naturalistic Episodic Memory with Artificial Intelligence and Brain‐Machine Interface

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Episodic memory weaves together what, where, and when of experience into a personal narrative. Cutting‐edge AI models may decode this intricate process in real‐life settings, revealing how neural activity encodes naturalistic memories. By merging AI with brain–machine interfaces, researchers are edging closer to mapping and even engineering memory ...
