Intracortical brain computer interfaces (iBCIs) have the potential to improve assistive communication options for people with paralysis or other severe motor impairments. Current assistive communication …
This thesis aims to contribute to the practical deployment of a new type of multichannel subdermal wireless EEG system under development at the Nurmikko Lab …
Cells of the central nervous system create intricate, three-dimensional networks in vivo that are compromised when cultured on traditional two-dimensional surfaces. As a result, 2D …
Recent machine learning techniques have become a powerful tool in a variety of tasks, including neural decoding. Artificial neural network models, particularly recurrent models, can …
Neuroprosthesis research aims to enable communication between the brain and external assistive devices while restoring lost functionality such as occurs from stroke, spinal cord injury …
Implantable brain-computer interface (BCI) systems may one day offer persons with locked-in syndrome a means of interacting and communicating with the outside world. These systems …
A primary goal of intracortical Brain-Computer Interface (iBCI) technology is to restore communication and independence for people with motor disabilities. The BrainGate System is an …
This thesis highlights our advances across many disciplines developing a fully implantable, low power, broadband, and wireless neural recording platform for use in persons with …
