EEG-fMRI Safety Updates: Protecting the BrainAmp MR family and PowerPack

The safety of research participants is the main concern for simultaneous EEG-fMRI acquisitions. We also aim to protect the BrainAmp MR system from damage within the harsh MR environment. This support tip explains the factors in the MR environment that make the BrainAmp MR (EEG/ExG) amplifiers and Powerpacks vulnerable to heating. We also provide recommendations on how to minimize the risk of heating and damage.

Translating visual perception from the lab to the real world using mobile EEG and mixed reality displays

Using naturalistic paradigms and stimuli is becoming increasingly prominent in cognitive neuroscience, where experimentation beyond the lab is increasingly possible. Studying the human brain in its ‘natural habitat’ provides ecological validity to our theories and promises novel insights into complex cognitive functioning. This relies on emerging technologies to take research out of the lab and into the wild, and combining these techniques offers a toolkit to study neural function in uncontrolled complex environments. We present and validate such an approach, through studying face processing in naturalistic, real-world environments, while importantly retaining the ability to manipulate our visual perceptions.

TurboLink – new solution enabling ultra-fast brain state-dependent research

An increasing number of research applications require online access to EEG data streams. For example, when signal features of the EEG are used to trigger TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) pulses, or where algorithms in BCI (Brain Computer Interface) applications are used to provide immediate response. For these applications, minimum latency and high accuracy become increasingly important.

Hyperscanning series part 6: Sending Wireless Triggers to Multiple Receivers

The first association one makes with the Wireless Trigger system is that it can be used to send triggers without the need for cables and a bulky setup. This already gives you a lot of freedom when planning an experiment with LiveAmps where movement should not be restricted or where additional cables would compromise the experience of the participants.

Cortico-muscular coupling to control a hybrid brain-computer interface for upper limb motor rehabilitation: A pseudo-online study on stroke patients

Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) systems for motor rehabilitation after stroke have proven their efficacy to enhance upper limb motor recovery by reinforcing motor related brain activity. Hybrid BCIs (h-BCIs) exploit both central and peripheral activation and are frequently used in assistive BCIs to improve classification performances. However, in a rehabilitative context, brain and muscular features should be extracted to promote a favorable motor outcome, reinforcing not only the volitional control in the central motor system, but also the effective projection of motor commands to target muscles, i.e., central-to-peripheral communication.

Functional and neuromuscular changes induced via a low-cost, muscle-computer interface for telerehabilitation: A feasibility study in chronic stroke

Stroke is a leading cause of adult disability in the United States. High doses of repeated task-specific practice have shown promising results in restoring upper limb function in chronic stroke. However, it is currently challenging to provide such doses in clinical practice. At-home telerehabilitation supervised by a clinician is a potential solution to provide higher-dose interventions. However, telerehabilitation systems developed for repeated task-specific practice typically require a minimum level of active movement. Therefore, severely impaired people necessitate alternative therapeutic approaches.

Hemodynamic functional connectivity optimization of frequency EEG microstates enables attention LSTM framework to classify distinct temporal cortical communications of diferent cognitive tasks

Te human brain dynamically engages distinct neural populations between distant brain regions, and their spatiotemporal oscillations often modulate systematically with behavioral and cognitive tasks. The synchrony or lack thereof between remote brain regions brings efective global brain communication, functional connectivity for information processing.

Getting to know EEG artifacts and how to handle them in BrainVision Analyzer 2

When recording EEG, the aim is to obtain a clear signal from the brain to help us investigate an aspect of its inner workings. However, intruding signals from other sources often enter the recording as well, obscuring the EEG signal of our interest. These intruding signals are known as “artifacts” and can have various physiological and non-physiological origins.

New: SyncBox Scanner Interface Duo release

We are happy to announce the new SyncBox Scanner Interface Duo. The SyncBox is used to synchronize the sampling rate of the BrainAmp MR amplifier with the MR scanner clock system. In brief, the aim is to achieve phase locking between the two clock systems to facilitate optimum correction of scanner-related artifacts in the EEG data. This is essential for achieving the best EEG-fMRI data quality. The SyncBox system comprises the SyncBox Main Unit and the SyncBox Scanner Interface. The Main Unit distributes the sync signal to the BrainAmp USB 2 Adapter (BUA), which drives the sampling frequency, and also to the computer to allow online synchronization validation. Whereas, the Scanner Interface galvanically isolates the Main Unit from the MR scanner to prevent any impact on the scanner clock system.

How to analyze a hyperscanning dataset with BrainVision Analyzer 2

Hyperscanning research has been developed to study the brain in a social environment. The interactive and social nature of the human brain is largely omitted in conventional paradigms. This is a crucial limitation for research subjects such as social behavior, interpersonal coordination, interactive decision-making, or affective communication.

How to decide which EEG amplifier best fits your research

Deciding which EEG amplifier is the best for your research work can be challenging. For some applications, specific requirements may hint at a well-defined solution. When no specific needs are to be considered, the choice may instead be guided by other technological and practical aspects. In this article we first highlight the main features of all Brain Products EEG amplifiers, from laboratory-based to mobile and wearable. We then offer some guidelines on how to decide on an EEG amplifier based on factors like; the technical features of the devices, their usability features, and the application for which it will be used.
