Photovoltaic stimulation of retinal microcircuit for vision restoration

Naïg Aurelia Ludmilla Chenais

Sight restoration through retinal prostheses was still a mere dream a century ago. Current challenges are even greater: providing a quantitatively and qualitatively useful artificial vision to late blind patients. Existing approaches all face engineering a ...

The role of population receptive field size and recurrent processing in learning to “de-crowd”

Michael Herzog, Ayberk Ozkirli, Maya Anna Jastrzebowska

In crowding, the perception of a target is impeded by surrounding clutter. While traditional models are feedforward and local, there is increasing behavioral and neural evidence for a critical role of recurrent processing across the visual hierarchy in cro ...

Virtual reality simulation of epiretinal stimulation highlights the relevance of the visual angle in prosthetic vision

Diego Ghezzi, Jacob Thomas Thorn

Objective. Retinal prostheses hold the potential to restore artificial vision in blind patients suffering from outer retinal dystrophies. The optimal number, density and coverage of the electrodes that a retinal prosthesis should have to provide adequate a ...

Exploring the Contribution of Proprioceptive Reflexes to Balance Control in Perturbed Standing

Auke Ijspeert, Anne Daniëlle Koelewijn

Humans control balance using different feedback loops involving the vestibular system, the visual system, and proprioception. In this article, we focus on proprioception and explore the contribution of reflexes based on force and length feedback to standin ...

Design and validation of a foldable and photovoltaic wide-field epiretinal prosthesis

Diego Ghezzi, Kevin Sivula, Marta Jole Ildelfonsa Airaghi Leccardi, Paola Vagni, Laura Ferlauto, Naïg Aurelia Ludmilla Chenais, Michele Bevilacqua

Retinal prostheses have been developed to fight blindness in people affected by outer retinal layer dystrophies. To date, few hundred patients have received a retinal implant. Inspired by intraocular lenses, we have designed a foldable and photovoltaic wid ...

The demystification of autoscopic phenomena: experimental propositions

Olaf Blanke, Christine Mohr

Autoscopic phenomena (AP) are rare, illusory visual experiences during which the subject has the impression of seeing a second own body in extrapersonal space. AP consist of out-of-body experience, autoscopic hallucination, and heautoscopy. Recent neurolog ...
