The future of neuromodulation: smart neuromodulation
Dirk De Ridder, Jarek Maciaczyk, Sven Vanneste
Abstract
: We propose that neuromodulation in the near to far future (5-10 years) will involve integration of adaptive network neuromodulation with predictive artificial intelligence, automatically adjusted by brain and external sensors, and controlled via cloud-based applications. The components will be introduced in a phased approach, culminating in a fully autonomous brain-stimulator-cloud interface. This may, in the long future (>10 years), lead to the brain of the future, a brain with integrated artificial intelligence.
