Neuralink and Beyond: Challenges of Creating an Enhanced Human

Gurtner, Dimitri

(Internal working papers DIUF ; 21-01)

This article is a literature review of Neuralink, brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) and their applications, followed by future possibilities of BMIs and their potential impacts. Currently, BMIs predominantly have therapeutic applications, such as helping people with spinal cord injury by allowing them to control a computer directly with their brain. However, BMIs can also improve learning,...

Cutaneous inputs to dorsal column nuclei in adult macaque monkeys subjected to unilateral lesion of the primary motor cortex or of the cervical spinal cord and treatments promoting axonal growth

Savidan, Julie ; Beaud, Marie-Laure ; Rouiller, Eric M.

In: Neuroscience Insights, 2020, vol. 15, p. 2633105520973991

The highly interconnected somatosensory and motor systems are subjected to connectivity changes at close or remote locations following a central nervous system injury. What is the impact of unilateral injury of the primary motor cortex (hand area; MCI) or of the cervical cord (hemisection at C7-C8 level; SCI) on the primary somatosensory (cutaneous) inputs to the dorsal column nuclei (DCN) in...
