This PRO lesson describes hardware and software setup of the BSL PRO System to record and measure nerve conduction velocity along the ulnar nerve of a human subject.

Experimental Objectives

  1. To record a charge from the stimulus electrodes to recording electrodes.
  2. To observe the Threshold, Maximal and Supra-Maximal response levels.
  3. To determine nerve conduction velocity along the ulnar nerve.

Tasks Performed by the Student

Subject will stimulate the nerve at increasing and decreasing increments to obtain responses at the recording electrodes.

Mobita Advances Prestimulus EEG Research

The Mobita 32-Channel EEG recording system was used in research examining if physiological data can be used to predict truly random events that correspond to perceptual stimuli. Baumgart, et al. from the University of California Santa Barbara utilized a quantum random number generator (qRNG) to choose from three randomized conditions: light, sound, and no stimulus. […]
