From Wikipedia: "Eberhard Erich Fetz (born February 5, 1940) is an American neuroscientist, academic and researcher. He is a Professor Emeritus of Neurobiology and Biophysics and DXARTS at the University of Washington. Fetz has authored over 160 papers on experimental neuroscience, brain-computer interfaces, and neural networks. His research focuses on the neural control of limb movement in primates. He pioneered the recording of cortical and spinal neurons in behaving monkeys and the applications of bidirectional brain-computer interfaces. In 2020, Fetz was elected as a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Neuroscience. Fetz's lab was the first to document the activity of cervical spinal cord interneurons in behaving monkeys. He studied the post-spike effects of premotor neurons on forelimb muscles and related their activity during controlled movements to their connectivity. When monkeys performed an instructed delay task, many spinal interneurons were related to preparation for the cued movement before it was executed. Fetz studied the applications of BBCI to bridging impaired biological connections, including cortically controlled electrical stimulation of paralyzed forearm muscles and cortically controlled intra-spinal stimulation. He found several applications of the closed-loop BBCI in producing Hebbian plasticity between cortical sites, through stimulation triggered from action potentials of cells or from phases of cortical beta oscillations recorded at neighboring sites, or from EMG activity of muscles. He and colleagues also strengthened cortico-spinal connections by cortically triggered intra-spinal stimulation, demonstrating in vivo effects of spike-timing dependent plasticity. A third application of the closed-loop BBCI was to deliver stimulation at an intracranial reward site contingent on neural activity, thereby operantly training monkeys to control neural activity during free behavior.".
