FIRST-IN-HUMAN DEMONSTRATION OF FLOATING EMG SENSORS AND STIMULATORS WIRELESSLY POWERED AND OPERATED BY VOLUME CONDUCTION

First-in-human demonstration of floating EMG sensors and stimulators wirelessly powered and operated by volume conduction

Abstract Background Recently we reported the design and evaluation of floating semi-implantable devices that receive power from and bidirectionally communicate with an external system using coupling by volume conduction.The approach, of which the semi-implantable devices are proof-of-concept prototypes, may overcome some limitations presented by ex

Theoretical analysis of Polycomb-Trithorax systems predicts that poised chromatin is bistable and not bivalent

Polycomb and Trithorax group proteins regulate silent and active gene expression states, but also allow poised states in pluripotent cells.Here the authors present a mathematical model that integrates data on Polycomb/ Body Massage Tool Trithorax biochemistry into a single coherent framework which predicts that poised chromatin is not bivalent as p
