The impact of varying electrical stimulation parameters on neuromuscular response [PDF]
High density neurostimulation systems are coming to market to help spinal cord injury patients by stimulating and recording neuromuscular function. However, the parameter space that these systems have to explore is exceedingly large, and would need an artificial intelligence (AI) system to optimize.

A covalently bound photoisomerizable agonist. Comparison with reversibly bound agonists at electrophorus electroplaques [PDF]
After disulphide bonds are reduced with dithiothreitol, trans-3-(alpha-bromomethyl)-3’-[alpha-(trimethylammonium)methyl]azobenzene (trans-QBr) alkylates a sulfhydryl group on receptors.

Histone Deacetylase 6 Brain PET in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis‐Frontotemporal Spectrum Disorder
ABSTRACT Objective [18F]EKZ‐001 is a positron emission tomography (PET) tracer targeting histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6), an enzyme responsible for intracellular transport and clearance of misfolded proteins. HDAC6 modulation is a promising treatment strategy in neurodegenerative disorders, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
