Towards an ultrasonically powered efficient multichannel neurostimulator implant

During the last few decades, electrical neural stimulators have successfully been employed as a means of treatment for a wide range of neurological disorders. By targeting the peripheral and central nervous systems, electrical neurostimulators activate/inhibit neural activity by manipulating the stimulus- induced electric field arising at the...

Development of Dorsal Root Ganglion (DRG) Multichannel Stimulator Prototype for use in Early Clinical Trials

Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) is characterized by a disruption of the spinal pathways connecting the brain to the rest of the body. This can result in an impairment or complete loss of sensory and/or motor functions, depending on the level and severity of the injury. The most common approach of attempting motor recovery using neuromodulation has been...
