A Microelectrode Stimulation System for a Cortical Neuroprosthesis

This paper describes an integrated microelectrode stimulator for intracortical neuroprosthesis. The implantable microelectrode stimulator uses flip-chip technology to be fully implantable without wiring, reducing the risk of infection and increasing robustness. It is small enough to be undetectable and has low power consumption which can be obtained directly from the carrier, through an RF low-...

The role of glia in neurological disease

Glial cells form a network in the central nervous system to support neurons and interact with them. The glia consist essentially of astrocytes that help with the nutrition of neurons and react in some cases of injury, oligodendrocytes that produce myelin, and microglia that are derived from the haemopoietic system and are concerned with the immunological defense of the nervous system. Experimen...

Visual Cortical Neuroprosthesis: A System Approach

This chapter describes a complete visual neuroprosthesis wireless system designed to restore useful visual sense to profoundly blind people. This visual neuroprosthesis performs intracortical microstimulation through one or more arrays of microelectrodes implanted into the primary visual cortex. The whole system is composed by a primary unit located outside the body and a secondary unit, implan...

Towards a Cortical Visual Neuroprosthesis for the Blind

Our main objective is to demonstrate the feasibility of a cortical neuroprosthesis, interfaced with the visual cortex, as a means through which a limited but useful visual sense may be restored to profoundly blind people. Although there are still a number of important unanswered questions and many problems have to be solved before a Cortical Visual Neuroprosthesis can be considered a viable cli...
