Big-Data Analytics of Human Brain Network Dynamics: A Simultaneous EEG-fMRI Study
Tang, Julia (2020-07-30)Psychiatric conditions, such as mood and anxiety, are complex and heterogeneous syndromes that encompass varied, co-occurring symptoms and divergent responses to treatment. To facilitate characterizing the heterogeneity ... -
Blast wave transmission through the ear with computational and 3D printed models and assessment of cochlea damage with SEM imaging
Brown, Marcus (2021-05-14)Blast-induced injuries affect the health of service members, veterans, and other victims, in which the auditory system is often damaged rupturing the tympanic membrane (TM) and reducing the number of viable cochlear hair ... -
Brain-wide neural co-activations in resting human
Ding, Lei; Shou, Goufa; Cha, Yoon-Hee; Sweeney, John A.; Yuan, Han (2022-10-15)Spontaneous neural activity in human as assessed with resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) exhibits brain-wide coordinated patterns in the frequency of < 0.1 Hz. However, understanding of fast ... -
COMPREHENSIVE PERFORMANCE EVALUATION AND OPTIMIZATION OF HIGH THROUGHPUT SCANNING MICROSCOPY FOR METAPHASE CHROMOSOME IMAGING
Qiu, Yuchen (2013-12)Specimen scanning is a critically important tool for diagnosing the genetic diseases in today’s hospital. In order to reduce the clinician’s work load, many investigations have been conducted on developing automatic sample ... -
Correction of Kinematic Data from a Self-Initiated Prone Position Crawler Trainer for Infants with Cerebral Palsy
Wilson, Leonard Jr (2017-12)In recent years small, inexpensive inertial measurement units (IMUs) have been used clinically to monitor human body joint angles in order to assess the progression of, or recovery from, various diseases affecting movement, ... -
DEVELOPMENT OF BIOMATERIALS FOR CALVARIAL BONE REGENERATION AND APPLICATION TO TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY
Townsend, Jakob (2017)In the treatment of severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), a two-stage surgical intervention is routinely performed. In the first surgery, decompressive craniectomy (DC) is performed to remove a large portion of calvarial ... -
Diffuse Optical Tomography of Spontaneous Brain Fluctuations in Humans
Khan, Ali (2022-05-13)In the absence of tasks or external stimuli, the human brain produces recordable spontaneous low-frequency fluctuating hemodynamic signals, which show temporally-correlated activity among brain regions forming a so-called ... -
EEG OSCILLATORY ACTIVITIES FROM HUMAN MOTOR BRAIN
Xiao, Ran (2015-12)Motor skills are essential in people’s daily life in exploring and interacting with the ambient environment. Impairments to motor functions affect the acquisition of motor skills, which not only reduce the quality of ... -
EEG/MEG Sparse Source Imaging and Its Application in Epilepsy
Zhu, Min (2013-12-13)This dissertation is a summary of my Ph.D. work on the development of sparse source imaging technologies based on electroencephalography (EEG) and magneto-encephalography (MEG) and their application to noninvasively ... -
Electroencephalographic Signatures in Developing Motor Brain of Infants at Time of Crawling Skill Acquisition
Patino, Alejandro (2017-08-01)Electroencephalography (EEG) is the aggregate of electrical signals emitted from the brain. Study of EEG has been widely used as a useful noninvasive method of collecting bioelectric signals from humans. Processing and ... -
Electromyographic Measurement of the Chinchilla Middle Ear Muscle Reflex Elicited by Acoustic or Blast Stimuli
Yokell, Zachary (2019-05-10)Hearing damage is a widespread problem that can cause social isolation and reductions in quality of life. A wide range of conditions including extended exposure to noise or near-instantaneous exposure to blast overpressure ... -
Electrophysiological resting state brain network and episodic memory in healthy aging adults
Chen, Yuxuan; Tang, Julia H.; De Stefano, Lisa A.; Wenger, Michael J.; Ding, Lei; Craft, Melissa A.; Carlson, Barbara W.; Yuan, Han (2022-06)Recent studies have emphasized the changes in large-scale brain networks related to healthy aging, with the ultimate purpose to aid in differentiating normal neurocognitive aging from neurodegenerative disorders that also ... -
