Useful Signals from Motor Cortex
Recent scientific progress has led to a better understanding
of the representation of arm movement in
the motor cortex. This knowledge has been used to
build neural prosthetic devices capable of operating
a prosthetic arm and gripper in a self-feeding task.
Dr. Schwartz received his Ph.D. from the University of
Minnesota in 1984 with a thesis entitled “Activity in the
Deep Cerebellar Nuclei During Normal and Perturbed
Locomotion.” He then went on to a postdoctoral
fellowship at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine
where he worked with Dr. Apostolos Georgopoulos,
who was developing the concept of directional tuning
and popuation-based movement representation in the
motor cortex While there, Dr. Schwartz was instrumental
in developing the basis for three-dimensional trajectory
representation in the motor cortex.
In 1988, Dr. Schwartz began his independent research
career at the Barrow Neurological Institute in Phoenix.
There, he developed a paradigm to explore the continuous
cortical signals generated throughout volitional
arm-movements. This was done using monkeys
trained to draw shapes while recording single-cell
activity from their motor cortices. After developing the
ability to capture a high fidelity representation of
movement intention from the motor cortex, Dr.
Schwartz teamed up with engineering colleagues at
Arizona State University to develop cortical neural prosthetics.
The work has progressed to the point that
monkeys can now use these recorded signals to
control motorized arm prostheses to reach out grasp a
piece of food and return it to the mouth.
