| Sensitivity and specificity of substrate mapping: An in silico framework for the evaluation of electroanatomical substrate mapping strategies | Background - Voltage mapping is an important tool for characterizing proarrhythmic electrophysiological substrate, yet it is subject to geometric factors that influence bipolar amplitudes and thus compromise performance. The aim of this study was to characterize the impact of catheter orientation on... | | 2014-01-01 |

| Characterizing growth patterns in longitudinal MRI using image contrast | Understanding the growth patterns of the early brain is crucial to the study of neuro-development. In the early stages of brain growth, a rapid sequence of biophysical and chemical processes take place. A crucial component of these processes, known as myelination, consists of the formation of a myel... | | 2014-01-01 |

| Ultrasound beam simulations in inhomogeneous tissue geometries using the hybrid angular spectrum method | The angular spectrum method is a fast, accurate and computationally efficient method for modeling wave propagation. However, the traditional angular spectrum method assumes that the region of propagation has homogenous properties. In this paper, the angular spectrum method is extended to calculate u... | | 2012-01-01 |

| Mitigating spinal cord injury | How would your life change if you became one of the 15,000 Americans to suffer a spinal cord injury this year? Trauma to the spinal cord causes immediate loss of function below the level of the injury. Then, in the hours and days after the accident, the body's secondary injury response may extend ... | Trapeze Interactive Poster | 2010-03-15 |

| Crystallization of the MS2 translational repressor alone and complexed to bromouridine | The coat protein from the MS2 bacteriophage plays a dual role by encapsidating viral RNA and also by binding RNA as a translational repressor. In order to study the isolated dimer in a conformation not influenced by capsid interactions, a mutant molecule was crystallized that is defective in capsid ... | Crystallization; RNA Bacteriophage; RNA Hairpin; Translational Repressor | 1995 |

| Visual Neuroprosthetics: Functional Vision for the Blind | Resent progress in materials and microfabrication technologies have allowed researchers to reconsider the prospect of providing a useful visual sense to the profoundly blind. This will be accomplished by electrically stimulating their visual systems via an array of implanted microelectrodes. T... | Visual Neuroprosthetics; Vision; Blindness | 1995-01 |

| Neural signal for the intensity of a tactile stimulus | The effect of indenting the skin at different rates on the perceived intensity of the stimulus was studied by indenting the skin of the fingertip with two triangular waveforms, given as a pair. The subjects were asked to judge which member of the pair was more intense. Perceived intensity was foun... | Skin; Indentation; Nerve impulses | 1984 |

| Characterization of lysozyme messenger and lysozyme synthesized in vitro | In vitro systems for protein systhesis have been in wide use for about 10 years. In most of the early work protein synthesis was measured by following the incorporation of radioactive amino acids into acid precipitable material. This test cannot distinguish between the synthesis of complete, activ... | Lysozyme Messenger; Lysozyme Synthesized; Protein Synthesis | 1969 |

| Perspectives on new electrode technology for stimulating peripheral nerves with implantable motor prostheses | Abstract-The limits of present electrode technology are being reached in current motor prostheses for restoring functional movement in paralyzed people. Improved devices require electrodes and stimulation methods that will activate muscles selectively and independently with less implanted hardwa... | Paralysis; Prostheses; Electrodes | 1995 |

| Simulation of a phosphene field based visual prosthesis | A visual prosthesis for the blind based upon electrical stimulation of the visual cortex requires the development of an array of electrodes. To establish design specifications for such an electrode array, we have conducted psychophysical experiments with normally sighted subjects wearing a portable... | Visual prosthesis; Phosphene simulator | 1990 |

| Long-term stimulation and recording with a penetrating microelectrode array in cat sciatic nerve | We studied the consequences of long-term implantation of a penetrating microelectrode array in peripheral nerve over the time course of 4-6 mo. Electrode arrays without lead wires were implanted to test the ability of different containment systems to protect the array and nerve during contractions o... | Cats; Microelectrodes; Prosthesis Implantation; Sciatic Nerve | 2004 |

| Stability of chronic intrafascicular electrode recordings | We have implanted intrafascicular electrodes in peripheral nerves of cats and have recorded neural activity from a small population of nerve fibers for as long as six months, suggesting that these electrodes can be used on a chronic basis to acquire information about limb position, muscle force and ... | Intrafascicular electrodes; Electrode recordings | 1989 |

| Information contrained in sensory nerve recordings made with intrafascicular electrodes | Multiunit recordings were made in anesthetized cats with chronically implanted intrafascicular electrodes over a period of six months. Neural signals recorded with these electrodes consisted of activity in sensory fibers innervating a variety of cutaneous mechanoreceptors.
