Real-time motor rotation frequency detection with event-based visual and spike-based auditory AER sensory integration for FPGA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Multisensory integration is commonly used in various robotic areas to collect more environmental information using different and complementary types of sensors. Neuromorphic engineers mimics biological systems behavior to improve systems performance

Chemical sensing by nonequilibrium cooperative receptors

open access: yes, 2013
Cooperativity arising from local interactions in equilibrium receptor systems provides gain, but does not increase sensory performance, as measured by the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) due to a fundamental tradeoff between gain and intrinsic noise. Here we

Intention Tremor and Deficits of Sensory Feedback Control in Multiple Sclerosis: a Pilot Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background Intention tremor and dysmetria are leading causes of upper extremity disability in Multiple Sclerosis (MS). The development of effective therapies to reduce tremor and dysmetria is hampered by insufficient understanding of how the distributed,

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Daily singing of adult songbirds functions to maintain song performance independently of auditory feedback and age

open access: yesCommunications Biology
Many songbirds learn to produce songs through vocal practice in early life and continue to sing daily throughout their lifetime. While it is well-known that adult songbirds sing as part of their mating rituals, the functions of singing behavior outside ...

Benchmarking Brain-Computer Interfaces Outside the Laboratory: The Cybathlon 2016

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2018
This paper presents a new approach to benchmarking brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) outside the lab. A computer game was created that mimics a real-world application of assistive BCIs, with the main outcome metric being the time needed to complete the ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Changes in Kinematic and Spatiotemporal Gait Parameters With a Biarticular Lower Limb Exosuit for Adolescents With Crouch Gait During Level Walking and Stair Climbing

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering
Crouch gait is a prevalent walking abnormality among children with cerebral palsy, characterized by excessive knee and hip flexion during walking. This condition often limits children’s engagement in physical activities and daily life.

Neuroinflammation in Parkinson's Disease and Related Disorders: A Lesson from Genetically Manipulated Mouse Models of α-Synucleinopathies

open access: yesParkinson's Disease, 2012
Neuroinflammation in Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic process that is associated with alteration of glial cells, including astrocytes and microglia. However, the precise mechanisms remain obscure.
