About
Birthe Rubehn is a leading figure in neural engineering, with a primary focus on the development and characterization of hardware for brain–computer interfaces (BCIs). Her work centers on advancing the recording technologies that bridge the gap between cortical signals and external devices. Rubehn’s most notable contribution is her comprehensive 2009 overview of hardware for recording neural signals from the cortex, which has garnered 63 citations and serves as a foundational resource for researchers entering the field. This paper systematically reviews electrode arrays, amplifiers, and signal processing components, providing critical insights into the engineering challenges of capturing high-fidelity neural data. Beyond this seminal review, Rubehn has made significant strides in designing flexible, high-density electrode arrays that improve biocompatibility and signal longevity, directly impacting the feasibility of chronic BCI applications. Her work is highly regarded for its practical approach to translating neural recordings into robust, real-world systems, earning her recognition as a key contributor to the hardware innovations that underpin modern neuroprosthetics.
