Directions in the development of intracortical neural interface technology. Mux: multiplexer; Amp: amplifier; ADC: analog-to-digital converter; DBS: deep brain stimulation. A recent study published in ...

Dr. Hugh Herr, a professor at MIT and senior author of the study, explained the significance: "This is the first prosthetic study in history that shows a leg prosthesis under full neural modulation, ...

State-of-the-art prosthetic limbs can help people with amputations achieve a natural walking gait, but they don’t give the user full neural control over the limb. Instead, they rely on robotic sensors ...

A new surgical technique for below-the-knee amputations retains a person’s ability to receive sensory feedback from remaining muscles. Having a prosthetic leg driven by an amputee’s own nervous system ...

Sensory play is more than just fun and games. It's a vital component of childhood development. The rich neural pathways formed through sensory play facilitate learning and growth in all children, ...

State-of-the-art prosthetic limbs can help people with amputations achieve a natural walking gait, but they don't give the user full neural control over the limb. Instead, they rely on robotic sensors ...

A U.S. Army soldier is participating in a clinical trial at Walter Reed testing a neural-enabled prosthetic limb designed to ...

A perplexing problem for many people with recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTIs) is persistent pelvic pain and incontinence, even after antibiotics have successfully cleared the bacterial ...
