Implanted Brain-Machine Interfaces for motor restoration and speech synthesis
Abstract.- Implanted neuroprostheses that combine high-density neural recording and precise volitional decoding represent a rapidly advancing technology with great promise for the treatment of neural diseases and the implementation of brain-machine interfaces (BMIs). The applications of these systems range from the treatment of pathologies such as epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, or chronic pain, to the restoration of motor function through BMI systems that connect directly to the patient's limbs via neuromodulation techniques, or the synthesis of real-time intelligible speech for patients who have lost the ability to speak due to traumatic injuries, laryngeal cancer or neurodegenerative disorders.
This talk will highlight the intersection between cutting-edge microelectronics, materials science, and neural engineering to address the major technical and biological challenges posed by the implementation of accurate and long-term stable implanted neuroprostheses. To this end, recent advances and trends in conformable microelectrode arrays, low-power neural recorders, and lightweight edge decoders will be discussed.
