- Restorative BCI aims at selective induction of use-dependent neuroplasticity to facilitate motor recovery.
In this post we are going to focus on restorative brain computer
interfaces. To understand how restorative BCIs work it is necessary
first to explain what
brain plasticity is. A plastic material is
moldable or changeable in structure and so is the brain. Brain
plasticity refers to the brain’s ability to change throughout life. The
brain has the amazing ability of reorganizing itself by forming new
connections between neurons. A consequence of neuroplasticity is that
the brain activity associated with a given function can move to a
different location. It is therefore able to compensate damage by
reorganizing and forming new connections between intact neurons.
In order to reconnect, the neurons need to be stimulated through activity, and here is where BCI’s role comes in.
