  1. 1. Development of highly biocompatible neuro-electronic interfaces towards monitoring authentic neuronal signaling in the brain

    Författare :Johan Agorelius; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; BMI; brain machine interface; Neuro-electronic interface; neurophysiology; brain computer interface; biocompatibility; biocompatible neural interface; neural interface; histology; electrophysiology;

    Sammanfattning : Background: To understand how the neuronal circuits in the brain process information there is a need for novelneuro-electronic interfaces that can interact chronically with brain tissue with minimal disturbance of thephysiological conditions in the tissue, in awake and freely moving animals. For this, there is a need for implantableneuro-electronic interfaces that are mechanically compliant with the tissue and that can remain positionally stablewith respect to the neurons, despite the continuous micromotions in the brain.

  3. 3. Silicon neural interfaces -Design and biomedical aspects-

    Författare :Lars Wallman; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Elektronik och elektroteknik; Electronics and Electrical technology; pn-etch stop; biocompatibility; neural recordings; porous silicon; silicon; neural interface; sieve electrode; General biomedical sciences; Biomedicinska vetenskaper allmänt ;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis covers the development of a silicon neural interface, with focus on silicon sieve electrode fabrication, design, nerve regeneration, signal recording and biocompatibility. A study of how the via hole size and transparency of the perforated sieve membrane influences the nerve regeneration is presented together with a study on soft tissue responses to planar and porous silicon.

  4. 4. Nanowires and Neural interfaces. Biocompatibility in the brain

    Författare :Lina Gällentoft; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Nyckelord :neural interface; neurons; BMI; nanowires; tissue responses; rat; biocompatibility; astrocytes; microglia;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic neural interfaces that are able to record or stimulate neurons in the CNS are valuable instruments in use today and they hold great promise for the future both within neuroscience research and in the clinic. However, a major obstacle is that they show a decline in performance over time. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Circuit Design Techniques for Implantable Closed-Loop Neural Interfaces

    Författare :Nikola Ivanisevic; Ana Rusu; Saul Rodriguez; Angel Rodriguez Vazquez; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Neural interface; ECoG; high-resolution; ADC; recording; delta-sigma modulator; system identification; impedance measurements; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Sammanfattning : Implantable neural interfaces are microelectronic systems, which have the potential to enable a wide range of applications, such as diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders. These applications depend on neural interfaces to accurately record electrical activity from the surface of the brain, referred to as electrocorticography (ECoG), and provide controlled electrical stimulation as feedback.
