Unobtrusive online monitoring of sleep at home [PDF]

2012 Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2012
We describe an online sleep monitoring service, based on unobtrusive ballistocardiography (BCG) measurement in an ordinary bed. The novelty of the system is that the sleep tracking web application is based on measurements from a fully unobtrusive sensor.

Functional and Structural Evidence of Neurofluid Circuit Aberrations in Huntington Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Disrupted neurofluid regulation may contribute to neurodegeneration in Huntington disease (HD). Because neurofluid pathways influence waste clearance, inflammation, and the distribution of central nervous system (CNS)–delivered therapeutics, understanding their dysfunction is increasingly important as targeted treatments emerge.
