It was developed to overcome the limitations of conventional DBS systems, especially in terms of functionality, long-term capability, and animal welfare. STELLA combines ultra-low power consumption, dual-channel, current-controlled stimulation, monitoring, wireless communication, and closed-loop functionality in a volume of less than 1 cm{\textthreesuperior}. The work thus establishes a scientifically robust and ethically improved foundation for preclinical DBS research.", school="Universit{\"a}t Rostock", note="vorgelegt von Franz Veit Plocksties", note="GutachterInnen: Dirk Timmermann (Universit{\"a}t Rostock, Institut f{\"u}r Angewandte Mikroelektronik und Datentechnik) ; Christian Haubelt (Universit{\"a}t Rostock, Institut f{\"u}r Angewandte Mikroelektronik und Datentechnik) ; Robert Rieger (Christian-Albrechts-Universit{\"a}t zu Kiel, Institut f{\"u}r Elektrotechnik und Informationstechnik)", note="Dissertation Universit{\"a}t Rostock 2026", doi="10.18453/rosdok_id00005771", url="https://purl.uni-rostock.de/rosdok/id00005771", url="https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-rosdok_id00005771-8", url="https://d-nb.info/1418060097/34", url="https://doi.org/10.18453/rosdok_id00005771", language="English" }
