There is no pharmacological treatment available to limit progressing neuronal death after cerebral ischemia. Here we show that targeting the interaction of GABAB receptors with CaMKII using a synthetic interfering peptide after an excitotoxic insult in cultured neurons or in brain slices from MCAO‐treated mice restored downregulated GABAB receptor ...

Electrophysiological evaluation of chronic neuropathic pain of spinal cord injury origin [PDF]
The chronic neuropathic pain of spinal cord injury origin has been shown to be related to permanent neurochemical changes in the dorsal horn neurons thus producing spontaneous discharges of central nociceptive neurons resulting in chronic pain.

A 20-Channel Magnetoencephalography System Based on Optically Pumped Magnetometers [PDF]
We describe a multichannel magnetoencephalography (MEG) system that uses optically pumped magnetometers (OPMs) to sense the magnetic fields of the human brain. The system consists of an array of 20 OPM channels conforming to the human subject's head, a person-sized magnetic shield containing the array and the human subject, a laser system to drive the ...

Bayesian Multi--Dipole Modeling of a Single Topography in MEG by Adaptive Sequential Monte Carlo Samplers [PDF]
In the present paper, we develop a novel Bayesian approach to the problem of estimating neural currents in the brain from a fixed distribution of magnetic field (called \emph{topography}), measured by magnetoencephalography. Differently from recent studies that describe inversion techniques, such as spatio-temporal regularization/filtering, in which ...

Cortical Excitability Before and After Long‐Term Perampanel Treatment for Epilepsy
ABSTRACT Objective Antiseizure medications (ASMs), which may influence cortical excitability, are the mainstay of epilepsy treatment. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) helps evaluate cortical excitability. We assessed changes in TMS responses using serial TMS measurements in people treated with an adjunctive noncompetitive AMPA‐receptor ...

Airborne Ultrasonic Tactile Display BCI [PDF]
This chapter presents results of our project, which studied whether contactless and airborne ultrasonic tactile display (AUTD) stimuli delivered to a user's palms could serve as a platform for a brain computer interface (BCI) paradigm. We used six palm positions to evoke combined somatosensory brain responses to implement a novel contactless tactile ...

Wearable Haptic Feedback Interfaces for Augmenting Human Touch
The wearable haptic feedback interfaces enhance user experience in gaming, social media, biomedical instrumentation, and robotics by generating tactile sensations. This review discusses and categorizes current haptic feedback interfaces into force, thermal, and electrotactile stimulation‐based haptic feedback interfaces, elucidating their current ...

Convergence drawing is used to create flexible, microscale, multifunctional fiber‐based neural probes. Optimized materials selection enables individual devices to perform neural recording, electrical stimulation, optogenetics, fiber photometry, fluid delivery, and voltammetric neurotransmitter detection in rodents.

Participants analyzed included 40 adults aged 18–20 and 40 children aged 6–8, who were cued with a sound that directed their attention to the location of an upcoming stimulus. The stimulus presented to the right or left of the participant in either the tactile, auditory or visual modalities and participants responded to the stimulus by pressing a foot ...
