Many studies over the past two decades have shown that people and animals can use brain
signals to convey their intent to a computer using brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). BCI …

Objective. Innovations in micro-electrocorticography (µECoG) electrode array manufacturing
now allow for intricate designs with smaller contact diameters and/or pitch (ie inter-contact …

Proper selection of stimulation parameters, such as the pulse frequency, pulse width and the
duty cycle, is important during charge injection for obtaining the desired functional response …

Micro-Electrocorticography (μECoG) offers a minimally invasive, high resolution interface
with large areas of cortex. A wide variety of μECoG designs have been developed and …

Advancements in neural interfaces capable of neural stimulation have shown that neural
implants may potentially target the central nervous system to treat neurological disorders …

The brain connects to, modulates, and receives information from every organ in the body. As
such, brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) have vast potential for diagnostics, medical …

I wish to first thank Peter Ledochowitsch for both his pioneering work on transparent µECoG
arrays and for his help and support throughout the project. Additional thanks to Marc …

Neural interfaces record and modulate brain signals, and they are applicable to
neuroprosthesis and neuroscience research. Electrode arrays that reside on the surface of …

Mechanical trauma to the brain, both big and small, and the method to protect the brain in its
presence is a crucial field of research given the large population exposed to neuronal …

Intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) is a method of electrically stimulating the primary motor,
visual, somatosensory and auditory cortices in the brain. The goal is to replace deficient …
