Second, OMiSO adaptively updates stimulation parameters online to compensate for changes in the brainโ€™s response to stimulation. It updates the stim-response inverse model during the experiment, leading to improved accuracy in inducing the target brain state. [3/n]

Taken together, OMiSO provides greater accuracy in achieving specified brain activity states than previous methods, thereby advancing neuromodulation technologies for understanding the brain and for treating brain disorders. Paper: openreview.net/pdf?id=Gb0mXhโ€ฆ [4/n]

Tomorrow, I will be presenting the closed-loop brain stimulation framework we developed (MicroStimulation Optimization, MiSO) at the workshop "Causal perturbation based approaches to uncovering neural dynamics". Looking forward to seeing you there! #Coysne2025

In this study, we implemented MiSO with a factor analysis based alignment method, a CNN model, and an epsilon greedy optimization algorithm. We tested MiSO in closed-loop experiments using electrical microstimulation (uStim) in the prefrontal cortex of a non-human primate. [6/n]

MiSO successfully searched amongst thousands of uStim parameter configurations to drive the population activity toward specified states. MiSO increases the clinical viability of neuromodulation technologies by enabling the use of larger stimulation parameter spaces. [7/n]
