A University of Houston engineering professor is warning that implanted cuff electrodes – widely used in therapy for epilepsy ...
Precise electrical stimulation is essential for modern neural interfaces, but unwanted current spread often activates off-target cells and limits resolution. A new microneedle electrode design ...
Researchers warn that implanted nerve cuff electrodes can trigger unintended nerve stimulation and pain during MRI scans.
Study raises MRI safety concerns for nerve implants by showing risks of unintended nerve stimulation during scans with cuff electrodes.
A new class of soft, dry electrodes conform to the complex geometry of the human ear, improving comfort and reliability in non-invasive nerve stimulation therapies. Study: Profiled Wet Spinning of ...
In pain relief and physical rehabilitation, TENS-based therapies are widely used to support non-pharmacological treatment strategies. Reusable electrode pads enable patients to conduct multiple ...
A team led by Northwestern University and Shirley Ryan AbilityLab scientists have developed a new technology that can eavesdrop on the hidden electrical dialogues unfolding inside miniature, lab-grown ...
A lab study found that gamma brain stimulation slightly increased altruistic choices. Here’s what researchers discovered—and ...
With the introduction of adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) for Parkinson's disease, new questions emerge regarding who, why, and how to treat. This paper outlines the pathophysiological rationale ...
Slow breathing and cold plunges promise calm. But real vagus nerve treatments are more complex and still under study.
As an innovative subtype of invasive brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), the Endovascular Brain-Computer Interface (EBCI) enables electrode delivery to target brain regions via endovascular intervention ...
