Introduction: The constant challenge to restore sensory feedback in prosthetic hands has
provided several research solutions, but virtually none has reached clinical fruition. A …

Our expanding expertise in peripheral nerve regeneration and soft tissue reconstruction is
enabling the development of novel innervated tissue constructs that can be combined with …

Bionic prostheses have restorative potential. However, the complex interplay between
intuitive motor control, proprioception, and touch that represents the hallmark of human …

We quantified prosthesis embodiment and phantom pain reduction associated with motor
control and sensory feedback from a prosthetic hand in one human with a long-term …

Neuromuscular control of bionic arms has constantly improved over the past years, however,
restoration of sensation remains elusive. Previous approaches to reestablish sensory …

Abstract Purpose of Review The complexity of the human extremity, particularly the upper
extremity and the hand, allows us to interact with the world. Prosthetists have struggled to …

Cutaneous sensation is vital to controlling our hands and upper limbs. It helps close the
motor control loop by informing adjustments of grasping forces during object manipulations …

For those individuals with upper-extremity amputation, a daily normal living activity is no
longer possible or it requires additional effort and time. With the aim of restoring their …

Sensory afferent fibers are an important component of motor nerves and compose the
majority of axons in many nerves traditionally thought of as “pure” motor nerves. These …

The ideal neuroprosthetic interface permits high-quality neural recording and stimulation of
the nervous system while reliably providing clinical benefits over chronic periods. Although …
