From Group-Level Statistics to Single-Subject Prediction: Machine Learning Detection of Concussion in Retired Athletes
Rober Boshra, Kiret Dhindsa, Omar Boursalie, Kyle I. Ruiter, Ranil Sonnadara, Reza Samavi, Thomas E. Doyle, James P. Reilly, John F. Connolly
         There has been increased effort to understand the neurophysiological effects of concussion aimed to move diagnosis and identification beyond current subjective behavioral assessments that suffer from poor sensitivity. Recent evidence suggests that event-related potentials (ERPs) measured with electroencephalography (EEG) are... Read more

Precise Tubular Braid Structures of Ultrafine Microwires as Neural Probes: Significantly Reduced Chronic Immune Response and Greater Local Neural Survival in Rat Cortex
Taegyo Kim, Yinghui Zhong, Simon F. Giszter
   Braided multi-electrode probes (BMEPs) for neural interfaces comprise ultrafine microwire bundles interwoven into tubular braids. BMEPs provide highly flexible probes and tethers, and an open lattice structure with up to 24 recording/stimulating channels in precise geometries, currently all within a... Read more

Mining Within-Trial Oscillatory Brain Dynamics to Address the Variability of Optimized Spatial Filters
Andreas Meinel, Henrich Kolkhorst, Michael Tangermann
   Data-driven spatial filtering algorithms optimize scores, such as the contrast between two conditions to extract oscillatory brain signal components. Most machine learning approaches for the filter estimation, however, disregard within-trial temporal dynamics and are extremely sensitive to changes in training... Read more

Development of a Non-Invasive Blink Reflexometer
Nancey Trevanian Tsai, Jesse S. Goodwin, Mark E. Semler, Ronald T. Kothera, Mark Van Horn, Bethany J. Wolf, Dena P. Garner
       Qualitative assessments of the blink reflex are used clinically to assess neurological status in critical care, operating room, and rehabilitative settings. Despite decades of literature supporting the use of quantitative measurements of the blink reflex in the evaluation of multiple... Read more

Suppression of Subthalamic Nucleus Activity by Micromagnetic Stimulation
Seung Woo Lee, Shelley L. Fried
Abstract Magnetic stimulation delivered via 0.5-mm diameter coils was recently shown to activate retinal neurons; the small coil size raises the possibility that micromagnetic stimulation (μMS) could underlie a new generation of implanted neural prosthetics. Such an approach has several inherent... Read more
