Introduction to Research Topic – Brain Connectivity Analysis: Investigating Brain Disorders. Part 2: Original Research Articles
One of the most challenging aspects of studying the brain is its amazing adaptive capabilities. It often reorganizes itself in response to occurrences in the external world; that is why we are able to remember past events, why we are able to learn new skills, and why we send our children to school. But, the brain also can reorganize to changes within the brain itself, including disease. Thus, a...
متن کاملNeurotechnology: a new approach for treating brain disorders.
Advances in neuroscience, engineering and computer technologies are creating opportunities to connect the brain directly to devices to treat a variety of disorders, both neurological and psychiatric. They are opening a new field of neuroscience called "neurotechnology." This article reviews efforts in this area that are ongoing at Brown University and the hospitals affiliated with Brown's Alper...
متن کاملNoninvasive Strategies to Optimise Brain Plasticity: From Basic Research to Clinical Perspectives
Brain plasticity can be defined as the capacity of cerebral neu-rons and neural circuits to change, structurally and functionally , in response to experience. This fundamental property is essential for maturation of sensory functions during development , for the adaptability of our behaviour to the environment through learning and memory processes and for brain repair in response to disease and...
متن کاملIntroduction to Research Topic – Brain Connectivity Analysis: Investigating Brain Disorders. Part 1: The Review Articles
The review articles can be roughly divided into (1) those that focus on a connectivity method, and use one or more disorders to illustrate the method, and (2) those whose emphasis is placed on a particular disorder, and discuss a number of relevant functional and structural connectivity studies investigating the disorder. In the first category of reviews, Rowe (2010) provides an overview of fMR...
متن کاملBrain-Computer Music Interfacing: From Basic Research to the Real World of Special Needs
This paper reports on the development of a proof-of-concept brain-computer music interfacing system (BCMI), which we built to be tested with a patient with Locked-in Syndrome at the Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability, in London. The system uses the Steady State Visual Evoked Potential (SSVEP) method, whereby targets are presented to a user on a computer monitor representing actions available t...
