Augmentation of brain function is achieved using brain implants for recordings, stimulation and drug delivery. Alternative methods include employing brain-machine interfaces, as well as noninvasive activation of certain brain areas. Existing methods of brain augmentation are evaluated, and new approaches are introduced. Brain circuitry and neuronal mechanisms that are candidates for augmentation are discussed.
This volume provides novel insights into brain disorders, and new devices for brain repair. Information in this book is relevant to researchers in the field of neuroscience, engineering, and clinical practice. Philosophical and ethical implications of brain augmentation are also addressed.
"This book employs a holistic approach in covering the recent advances in the fields of neuroscience, neuroinformatics, neurotechnology and neuro-psycho-pharmacology. Each chapter of the book covers major aspects of modern brain research in connection with the human mind and behavior, and is authored by researchers with unique expertise in their field. " - Ioan Dumitrache
"This book presents compelling perspectives on what interactive neuroscience will look like in the future, delving into the innovatory ideas of a diverse set of neuroscientists, and speculating on the different ways computer chips implanted in the brains of humans can effect intelligence and communication." - György Buzsáki
Dr. Mikhail Lebedev a Chief Research Scientist and Professor, works in the fields of Neurorophysiology and Neuroprosthetics. The major focus of his current research is on brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), such as BCIs for reaching and grasping, BCIs that reproduce bipedal locomotion patterns, and sensorized BCIs that both extract motor command from the brain and deliver sensory information back to the brain. Lebedev is an editor of several journals, books and special issues.
Manuel F. Casanova, MD is the SmartState Endowed Chair in Childhood Neurotherapeutics and a professor of Biomedical Sciences at the University of South Carolina School of Medicine Greenville. He is a former Gottfried and Gisela Kolb Endowed Chair in Outpatient Psychiatry and a Professor of Anatomical Sciences and Neurobiology at the University of Louisville. Casanova's research focuses on the biological basis of neurodevelopment disorders, and abnormalities of cortical circuitry, in particular on the cell minicolumn. Using computerized imaging analysis, he has established the anatomical validity of the cell minicolumn. Casanova has reported interhemispheric differences in the morphometry of minicolumns that could provide explanations for the speciation of hominids. He has also reported on the use of transcranial magnetic stimulation as a possible therapeutic intervention in autism and on the use of gamma oscillation abnormalities as an outcome measure.
