Article Synopsis
  • Peripheral nerve interfaces can help restore sensory, motor, and visceral functions, with intraneural interfaces targeting deep neural structures effectively, although their success relies on specific surgical techniques and individual anatomy.
  • The proposed optimization workflow facilitates pre-surgical planning and stimulation protocol design for multi-electrode implants by using advanced models and machine learning, making it adaptable to the unique anatomy of each patient.
  • The study demonstrates that optimized multi-channel electrode implants and multipolar stimulation can lead to highly selective muscle activation, highlighting the importance of understanding structural and functional anatomy in developing personalized neuroprostheses for motor function restoration.

Spherical bushy cells (SBCs) in the anteroventral cochlear nucleus receive a single or very few powerful axosomatic inputs from the auditory nerve. However, SBCs are also contacted by small regular bouton synapses of the auditory nerve, located in their dendritic tree. The function of these small inputs is unknown.
