Microwave radiation refers to electromagnetic waves between 300 MHz and 300 GHz. Microwaves are used in communication systems, manufacturing, medical treatments, and military operations. The ability to modify waveform ...
A leaky integrate and fire (LIF) model is a basic mathematical model designed to simulate a neuron. The simplicity and relative ease with which network architectures can be constructed using patterns of LIF neurons make ...
When an individual suffers nerve damage as a result of a stroke or
severe trauma, their quality of life suffers greatly. In many cases, this can
lead to paralysis of limbs due to peripheral nerve damage. To improve
mobility ...
Bi-directional exchange of information between the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and a computer interface can be achieved through the use of a peripheral nerve interface (PNI). Sophisticated PNI’s can be used to augment ...
There are several different retinal diseases prominent within the United
States including
age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic retinopathy, and glaucoma.
These three particular retinal diseases affect a total ...
Anosmia is an olfactory disease that is associated with the inability to smell. This disease affects 3-20% of the population, consisting of younger as well as aged adults. Anosmia is found mostly in aged adults, that are ...
The goal of this study is to determine how the needs of those who operate upper limb prosthetics can be met so that the prosthetic retention rate is higher, reflecting an improvement in their quality of life. As we use our ...
Predicting, diagnosing, and treating neurological disease is a
significant challenge in current medical research. This review will consider
computational neuroengineering models of the brain for three specific
neurological ...
Developing technologies and mechanisms that perform like our biological muscles have great potential of being useful for prosthetics research. Developing these technologies can be thought of as the easy part of the design, ...
1.7 million people in the US suffer from traumatic brain injury (TBI) each year, typically resulting from car accidents, contact sports, military operations, and falls [1]. Currently, healthcare personnel rely on the Glasgow ...
