Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) is a well‐established technique that utilises electrical currents to evoke muscle contractions, thereby aiding in the rehabilitation of patients with ...

A new study by researchers at the University of Galway and the University of Limerick suggests that electrical stimulation might be essential for tendons to maintain their health, offering fresh ...

The idea of interfacing with a living brain has fascinated scientists for centuries. From surface electrodes such as EEG (electroencephalography) and ECoG (electrocorticography) to brain-penetrating ...

A new drug-free, minimally invasive intervention targets the root cause of progressive loss of neural function in spinal muscle atrophy (SMA), an inherited neuromuscular disease. An intervention, ...

The FESGlove system integrates a multi-channel stimulator, a human-machine interface, and a wearable glove with embedded silver fiber and hydrogel electrodes. Functional electrical stimulation is ...

Scientists have developed an approach that combines rehabilitation robotics with spinal cord stimulation to restore movement in people with spinal cord injuries. The technology enhances rehabilitation ...

A research team led by Associate Professor Hiroto Sekiguchi and graduate student Gota Shinohara from the Department of Electrical and Electronic Information Engineering at Toyohashi University of ...

Scientists at Trinity College Dublin have discovered that electrically stimulating macrophages can “reprogram” them in such a way to reduce inflammation and encourage faster, more effective healing in ...
