NEUROMIMETIC STIMULATION APPLIED ON CEREBRAL ORGANOIDS

In this work, we present a digital hardware implementation of a biomimetic Spiking Neural Network (SNN) reproducing a Central Pattern generator (CPG) [1] for stimulating organoids [2], [3] which are three-dimensional assemblies of neurons developed from human stem cells in vitro. By connecting organoids mimicking our nervous system with electronic SNNs, we intend to develop a model system for a brain-electronics interface.
