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 ...

This is the third part in a series on deep brain stimulation for depression. Read from the beginning. Early in the morning on August 22, 2022, Jon’s medical team told him that neurologist Helen ...

Polyurethane-based soft electrodes offer a scalable solution for non-invasive nerve stimulation, improving comfort and electrical contact in wearable devices.

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Medial-lateral electrode position in the right subthalamic nucleus correlated with weight gain, with greater ...

Measuring brain activity is a useful technique for diagnosing epilepsy and other neuropsychiatric disorders. Among the several approaches adopted, electroencephalography (EEG) is the least invasive.

Specific nerves may be stimulated artificially, for example to treat pain. The finer the nerves, the more difficult it is to attach the required electrodes. Researchers at the Technical University of ...

Researchers studying obsessive-compulsive disorder have identified a specific brain signal that appears to precede the onset of compulsive urges, a finding that could reshape how clinicians approach ...

Scientists at Imperial College London are leading on the development and testing of the new method of stimulating the brain, which could provide an alternative treatment for brain diseases such as ...

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 ...

Michel Roccati lost the ability to walk after a motorcycle accident in 2017, when he had a complete spinal cord injury. But today, equipped with an electrode device implanted on his spinal cord, ...
