Official title

U.S.-German Collaboration: Optimization of Human Cortical Stimulation

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

We will observe epileptic patients who already have electrodes implanted on the brain and are receiving high-level brain stimulation for clinical purposes while testing their motor and language function. We propose to do a limited, low-level brain stimulation to show that the signatures of local activity in the target area change as an effect of brain stimulation. The goal of this study is to understand the feasibility of a novel recurrent brain-computer interface that could eventually promote targeted functional recovery in subjects who have had a brain injury.
