2. 1. Temporal representation of Motor Imagery : towards improved Brain-Computer Interface-based strokerehabilitation

   Author : Jonatan Tidare; Elaine Åstrand; Pawel Herman; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; brain-computer interface; eletroencephalogram; stroke rehabilitation;

   Abstract : Practicing Motor Imagery (MI) with a Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) has shown promise in promoting motor recovery in stroke patients. A BCI records a person’s brain activity and provides feedback to the person in real time, which allows the person to practice his or her brain activity. READ MORE

4. 2. A novel implantable ultra-flexible brain machine interface. Manufacturing and initial characterisations

   Author : Fotios Tsanakalis; Neuronano Research Center (NRC); []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Brain-Machine Interfaces; BMIs; Neural Interfaces; Electrodes;

   Abstract : This thesis describes for the very first time the development of a miniaturized neural interface which is flexible in three dimensions (3D) to enable it to follow the brain movements with minimal dislocation. Both the design rationale and the material choice for the electrodes aim to develop interfaces that minimize the damage and/or the irritation of the tissue during and after the implantation.

5. 3. A tailored biocompatible neural interface for long term monitoring in neural networks

   Author : Per Köhler; Neuronano Research Center (NRC); []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Brain-machine interfaces; neuroinflammation; somatosensory cortex; hyperalgesia; allodynia;

   Abstract : Neural interface electrodes that can record from neurons in the brain for long periods of time will be of great importance to unravel how the brain accomplishes its functions. However, current electrodes usually cause significant glia reactions and loss of neurons within the adjacent brain parenchyma. READ MORE

6. 4. Crucial Considerations: Essays on the Ethics of Emerging Technologies

   Author : Karim Jebari; Sven-Ove Hansson; Ingmar Persson; KTH; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; neuroethics; brain machine interface; convergence seminars; moral enhancement; human enhancement; privacy; autonomy;

   Abstract : Essay I explores brain machine interface (BMI) technologies. These make direct communication between the brain and a machine possible by means of electrical stimuli. READ MORE

7. 5. On Calibration Algorithms for Real-Time Brain-Computer Interfaces

   Author : Frida Heskebeck; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : A Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) is a system that, in real-time, translates the user's brain activity into commands that can be used to control applications, such as moving a cursor on the screen. The translation is made possible by machine learning methods and other algorithms. READ MORE
