Layer-Dependent Effects of Chronic Neural Electrode Implants on Neural Functional Connectivity in Mice Introduction This study explores the long-term effects of chronically implanted microelectrodes on neural functional connectivity within the brains of C57BL6 wild-type mice. Implanted intracerebral electrodes enable the recording and electrical st...

Topology of Surface Electromyography Signals: Decoding Hand Gestures Using Riemannian Manifolds This paper is authored by Harshavardhana T. Gowda (Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of California, Davis) and Lee M. Miller (Center for Mind and Brain Sciences, Department of Neurophysiology and Behavior, Department of Otolar...

Influence of Peripheral Nerve Geometry and Local Anatomy on Magnetic Stimulation Time Constant Background Introduction Rapidly switching magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) gradient fields produce sufficiently strong electric fields within the human body, leading to peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS), which limits improvements in imaging speed and res...

EEG of Pre-movement Phase Aids Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) in Recognizing Movement Intentions Background and Research Objectives Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) is a technology that translates human intentions directly through neural signals to control devices, holding extensive application prospects [1]. BCI has the potential to revolutionize va...

Report on Single-Session Cross-Frequency Dual-Focus tACS Modulation of Visuomotor Network Activity in Healthy Young Adults and Stroke Patients Academic Background and Research Significance In neuroscience research, neural oscillations play a crucial role in regulating communication within and between brain regions. Long-distance phase synchronizati...

Visual Brain-Computer Interface Based on High-Frequency Steady-State Visual Evoked Fields Background Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) technology allows users to control machines by decoding specific brain activity signals. While invasive BCIs excel in capturing high-quality brain signals, their application is mainly limited to clinical settings. Non-...

Characteristics, Quantity, and Spatial Distribution of Human Cervical Vagus Nerve and its Cardiac Superior Branch Nerve Fibers Introduction In modern medicine, Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) is widely used to treat various diseases such as epilepsy, obesity, depression, and heart diseases. Although the overall Vagus nerve stimulation method has prov...

Sustained Reduction of Essential Tremor with Low-Power Non-Thermal Transcranial Focused Ultrasound Stimulation in Humans Background Essential Tremor (ET) is one of the most common neurological disorders, primarily characterized by bilateral upper limb action tremor that persists for more than three years. For ET unresponsive to medication, neurosur...

Threshold and Mechanisms of Magnetophosphene Perception Background The effect of Magnetic Fields (MF) on the human body has long been a hot topic in scientific research. Extremely Low-Frequency Magnetic Fields (ELF-MF) are widespread in daily life, primarily originating from power lines (50⁄60 Hz) and household appliances. These magnetic fields can...

Patients with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) often experience gait impairments, which severely affect their quality of life. Previous studies have suggested that β-frequency (15-30 Hz) oscillatory activity in the basal ganglia may be associated with gait impairments, but the exact dynamics of these oscillations during the gait process remain unclear. Add...
