Popis: Biological neuronal cells communicate using neurochemistry and electrical signals. Electrical stimulation (ES) is utilized to study neuronal cells and networks. Currently, ES is applied and responses observed in an open-loop fashion, which does not resemble natural network I/O. We hypothesize that real-time closed-loop full-duplex (simultaneous two-way) paradigms could provide deeper insight in natural neuronal networks, helping to understand our brains and to control neuronal network states to cure diseases. We present a minireview of ES-based extracellular in vitro neuroscience, our first long-term closed-loop ES experiment results as the proof-of-feasibility of the method, and our paradigm-shifting proposal of dialogical bio-ICT paradigms. acceptedVersion
