Small Business: Bioengineering, Device Development and Neurosurgery – NV (15)
The topics covered include developing new monitoring devices (amplifiers, electrodes) and analytical tools for EEG and related signals (ERPs) for applications in the fields of epilepsy, sleep disorders, neurological critical care, and some other miscellaneous applications such as cognitive alterations.
Implantable electrodes and various aspects of neuroprosthetic devices (new arrays, telemetry, external power, etc.) and their clinical and research applications are also covered. The study section also reviews applications related to monitoring and interventional tools for neurovascular defects (such as aneurysms), stroke, and ICP monitoring.
