Subject: [AUDITORY] New Introductory Textbook on Neuroprosthetics From: Andrej Kral <Kral.Andrej@xxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 19 Apr 2021 06:20:36 +0000--_000_9165D3552D394A78AA9E5AD328F43B8Cmhhannoverde_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Dear colleagues, together with Hannes Maier and Felix Aplin we have just published and intro= ductory textbook on neuroprosthetics. It introduces all key concepts for un= derstanding cochlear implants and similar stimulation devices, including th= e chemistry of electrode-tissue interface, electrode double layer, current = sources vs. voltage sources, safety concerns, Faradaic and Non-Faradaic rea= ctions, activation function, spread of excitation, foreign body reactions, = etc. The book is written for our PhD students, at a level that is supposed to be= also well readable for clinicians as well as for readers with biological a= nd engineering backgrounds. Here the link for more details: https://neuroprostheses.com/AK/Book.html Kindest regards Andrej Andrej KRAL, MD, PhD Fellow of the German National Academy of Science Chair of Auditory Neurophysiology, Medical University Hanover Professor of Systems Neuroscience, Macquarie University, Sydney Adjunct Professor of Cognition and Neuroscience, The University of Texas at= Dallas Cluster Board Member, DFG Cluster of Excellence Hearing4All ---------------------------------------------------------------------------= ------------------ Director Institute of AudioNeuroTechnology (VIANNA) Medical University Hanover Stadtfelddamm 34 30625 Hanover Germany Phone: +49 511 532 7272 Fax: +49 511 532 7274 Homepage: http://neuroprostheses.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------------= ------------------ --_000_9165D3552D394A78AA9E5AD328F43B8Cmhhannoverde_ Content-Type: text/html; charset="us-ascii" Content-ID: <06AA9BBB518507459217B110054AEA03@xxxxxxxx> Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <html> <head> <meta http-equiv=3D"Content-Type" content=3D"text/html; charset=3Dus-ascii"= > </head> <body style=3D"word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break:= after-white-space;" class=3D""> Dear colleagues, <div class=3D""><br class=3D""> </div> <div class=3D""> <div class=3D"Apple-Mail-URLShareUserContentTopClass">together with Hannes = Maier and Felix Aplin we have just published and introductory textbook on n= europrosthetics.
