Abstract: Individuals with spinal cord injury or neurological disorders have problems in voiding function due to the dyssynergic contraction of the urethral sphincter. Here, we introduce a closed-loop control of intraspinal microstimulation (ISMS) for efficient bladder… read more here.

Abstract: OBJECTIVE Bladder dysfunction is a significant and largely unaddressed problem for people living with spinal cord injury. Intermittent catheterization does not provide volitional control of micturition and has numerous side effects. Targeted electrical microstimulation of… read more here.
