Theory-Driven EEG Indexes for Tracking Motor Recovery and Predicting the Effects of Hybridizing tDCS With Mirror Therapy in Stroke Patients by Chia-Lun Liu, Ken-Hsien Su, Yi-Shiung Horng, Chia-Ling Chen, Shou-Hsien Huang, Ching-Yi Wu

“…Three months after training, only the premotor tDCS group maintained the gains in FMA, with these improvements correlated with the EEG indexes. Again, this pattern was specific to premotor tDCS. Since the gating-by-inhibition model suggests that EEG index reflects an individual’s psychomotor efficiency, we also found that the baseline EEG index could predict FMA retention. …”

The Ethical Significance of Brain-Computer Interfaces as Enablers of Communication by Toma Gruica

“…Intracortical BCIs, by contrast, can restore communicative capacity by directly decoding neural signals associated with intended speech or movement.[5] One landmark study documented an amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patient who, after entering CLIS, learned to use an implanted BCI speller to construct sentences at a rate of approximately one character per minute. The patient’s communications ranged from the mundane, such as requesting music, to expressions of existential significance involving care preferences.[6] Importantly, when researchers were asked how they would respond if the patient spelled “unplug my ventilator,” they emphatically stated that BCI output would not determine decisions regarding life support withdrawal. …”
