Neural Engineering
Examine a variety of clinical conditions and their associated neurological basis, and then analyze the engineering solutions to cope with the neurological deficits, with an emphasis on electrical and computer engineering components. Study approaches to design motor neuroprosthetics and sensory neuroprosthetics that restore lost functions. Learn principles of deep brain stimulation, neuromodulation, and brain plasticity. Explore the concepts behind technological approaches for neurorehabilitation, in particular robotics and brain-computer interfaces. Electrical and Computer Engineering 385J (Topic: Neural Engineering) and 385J (Topic 1) may not both be counted.
