RESUMO
A distributed, modular, intelligent, and efficient neuromodulation device, called OMNI, is presented. It supports closed-loop recording and stimulation on 256 channels from up to 4 physically distinct neuromodulation modules placed in any configuration around the brain, hence offering the capability of addressing neural disorders that are presented at the network level. The specific focus of this paper is the communication and power distribution network that enables the modular and distributed nature of the device.

The proceedings of the 2nd Annual Deep Brain Stimulation Think Tank summarize the most contemporary clinical, electrophysiological, and computational work on DBS for the treatment of neurological and neuropsychiatric disease and represent the insights of a unique multidisciplinary ensemble of expert neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuropsychologists, psychiatrists, scientists, engineers and members of industry. Presentations and discussions covered a broad range of topics, including advocacy for DBS, improving clinical outcomes, innovations in computational models of DBS, understanding of the neurophysiology of Parkinson's disease (PD) and Tourette syndrome (TS) and evolving sensor and device technologies.
