T ALK # 1 Title : Interfacing Brain and Machines : Challenges and Perspectives
نویسندگان
چکیده
Interfacing brain and machines involve recording neural signals, extracting information from them and applying stimulations in closed loop. Applications are huge: from therapies for epilepsy and other kind of brain seizures to the control of prosthesis. Challenges are enormeous and truly multi-disciplinary: including, design of ultra low-noise microelectronic circuits with minimum power budget, energy scavenging, bio-compatibility, compressive sensing, etc. This talk identifies critical challenges and overviews proposed solutions. Discussions are illustrated with actual circuits tested in animals in collaboration between the Institute of Microelectronics of Seville, the University of Seville and the Institute of Bioengineering of the School of Medicine of the Universidad Miguel Hernandez.

New Heuristics for Interfacing Human Motor System using Brain Waves
There are many new forms of interfacing human users to machines. We persevere here electric-mechanical form of interaction between human and machine. The emergence of brain–computer interface allows mind-to-movement systems. The story of the Pied Piper inspired us to devise some new heuristics for interfacing human motor system using brain waves, by combining head helmet and LumbarMotionMonitor...
متن کاملGlycine/NMDA Receptor Pathway and Mediating the Rapid-Onset Antidepressant Effect of Alkaloids From Trichilia Monadelpha
Introduction: Major depressive disorder is often associated with suicidal tendencies, and this condition accentuates the need for rapid-acting antidepressants. We previously reported that alkaloids (ALK) from Trichilia monadelpha possess antidepressant action in acute animal models of depression and that this effect is mediated through the monoamine and L-arginine-NO-cGMP pathways. This study i...
متن کاملClosed- and Open-loop Deep Brain Stimulation: Methods, Challenges, Current and Future Aspects
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is known as the most effective technique in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, especially Parkinson disease (PD) and epilepsy. Relative healing and effective control of disease symptoms are the most significant reasons for the tangible tendency in use and development of this technology. Nevertheless, more cellular and molecular investigations are required ...
