Course Description

This course is designed to introduce the student to the field of neural engineering. Neural engineering, as with all engineering fields, can be thought of as applied scientific understanding, in this case applied neuroscience. The class will cover aspects of neurophysiology, neuroanatomy, neurosurgery, biophysics, electronics, and signal processing; and integrate these knowledge areas into neural engineering applications. The student will learn an entire process for conducting research in neural engineering: surgical implantation of sensors and effectors, data acquisition, processing neural signals, decoding neural data, and controlling prosthetic devices. At the end of the class you should have a foundation for working with neural engineering applications and conducting research in neural engineering.
