Impact of Network Topology on Neural Synchrony in a Model of the Subthalamic ...
Monday, December 25, 2023
Synchronous neural oscillations within the beta frequency range are observed across the parkinsonian basal ganglia network, including within the subthalamic nucleus (STN) - globus pallidus (GPe) subcircuit. The emergence of pathological synchrony in Parkinson's disease is often attributed to chan... .. read more..
Multivariable closed-loop control of deep brain stimulation for Parkinson's d...
Thursday, September 21, 2023
Objective. Closed-loop deep brain stimulation (DBS) methods for Parkinson's disease (PD) to-date modulate either stimulation amplitude or frequency to control a single biomarker. While good performance has been demonstrated for symptoms that are correlated with the chosen biomarker, suboptimal re... .. read more..

Sunday, July 30, 2023
The development of bioelectronic neural implant technologies has advanced significantly over the past 5 years, particularly in brain-machine interfaces and electronic medicine. However, neuroelectrode-based therapies require invasive neurosurgery and can subject neural tissues to micromotion-indu... .. read more..
Waist-What? Can a single sensor positioned at the waist detect parameters of ...
Thursday, June 8, 2023
One of the problems facing an ageing population is functional decline associated with reduced levels of physical activity (PA). Traditionally researcher or clinician input is necessary to capture parameters of gait or PA. Enabling older adults to monitor their activity independently could raise t... .. read more..
On-Off and Proportional Closed-Loop Adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation Reduces M...
Sunday, May 28, 2023
CONCLUSIONS: Adaptive DBS, using both on-off and proportional control schemes, is as effective as conventional DBS in reducing motor symptoms of PD in parkinsonian rats. Both aDBS algorithms yield substantial reductions in stimulation power. These findings support using hemiparkinsonian rats as a... .. read more..
Cortico-muscular coherence in primary lateral sclerosis reveals abnormal cort...
Thursday, May 4, 2023
Primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) is a slowly progressing disorder, which is characterized primarily by the degeneration of upper motor neurons (UMNs) in the primary motor area (M1). It is not yet clear how the function of sensorimotor networks beyond M1 are affected by PLS. The aim of this study w... .. read more..
