Engineered systems that can serve as chronically stable, high-performance electronic
recording and stimulation interfaces to the brain and other parts of the nervous system, with …

Individuals who have lost the use of their hands because of amputation or spinal cord injury
can use prosthetic hands to restore their independence. A dexterous prosthesis requires the …

Neuroprosthetics is a multidisciplinary field at the interface between neurosciences and
biomedical engineering, which aims at replacing or modulating parts of the nervous system …

The sense of proprioception allows us to keep track of our limb posture and movements and
the sense of touch provides us with information about objects with which we come into …

Pioneering work with nonhuman primates and recent human studies established
intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) in primary somatosensory cortex (S1) as a method of …

Focused ultrasound (FUS) has recently been investigated as a new mode of non-invasive
brain stimulation, which offers exquisite spatial resolution and depth control. We report on …

Intracortical microstimulation of the somatosensory cortex offers the potential for creating a
sensory neuroprosthesis to restore tactile sensation. Whereas animal studies have …

Paralyzed muscles can be reanimated following spinal cord injury (SCI) using a brain-
computer interface (BCI) to enhance motor function alone. Importantly, the sense of touch is …

Neural sensing and stimulation have been the backbone of neuroscience research, brain-
machine interfaces and clinical neuromodulation therapies for decades. To-date, most of the …

Electrical stimulation using implantable electrodes is widely used to treat various neuronal
disorders such as Parkinson's disease and epilepsy and is a widely used research tool in …
