Cory Cruttenden’s innovative neural electrode for deep brain stimulation is designed to eliminate image artifacts and brain tissue heating during functional MRI.
Claire Kaiser’s project aims to develop a wearable, noninvasive device for targeted ultrasound of neural pathways within the spleen combined with noninvasive electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve to treat rheumatoid arthritis.
Dr. Yingchen He's innovative research will provide a practical way to evaluate how blind patients use the spatial information provided by Argus II retinal prostheses.
Neuromodulation of renal nerves may be a promising therapy for hypertension. A better understanding of the interactions between renal efferent and afferent nerves is needed to develop this therapy.
Dr. Alexander Herman's project aims to develop new biomarkers and treatment targets for depression and other conditions characterized by dysfunction in decision making.
Dr. Ivan Alekseichuk will investigate the feasibility of the simultaneous entrainment of brain rhythms in two distinct regions using transcranial electric stimulation.
