Viral-mediated optogenetic stimulation of peripheral motor nerves in non-human primates

2018-02-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objective</h4> Reanimation of muscles paralyzed by disease states such as spinal cord injury remains a much sought after therapeutic goal of neuroprosthetic research. Optogenetic stimulation of peripheral motor nerves expressing light-sensitive opsins is a promising approach to muscle reanimation that may overcome several drawbacks of traditional methods such as functional electrical stimulation (FES). Howeve...
