Neuroengineering or neural engineering is a discipline that uses techniques to understand, repair, replace, or enhance neural systems. It involves the application of concepts from the fields of experimental neuroscience, computational neuroscience, clinical neurology, and electrical engineering. It also incorporates elements from cybernetics, robotics, materials science, computer engineering, neural tissue engineering, and nanotechnology. Neuroengineering focuses on the restoration and augmentation of human function through the direct interaction between the nervous system and artificial devices. It is applied in neural imaging, networks and interface, prostheses and tissue regeneration, microsystems, microelectrode arrays, neurorobotics, grafts, biomolecular therapies, and neural enhancement. This book presents the complex subject of neuroengineering in the most comprehensible and easy-to-understand language. The topics covered herein deal with the core applications of neuroengineering. This book will serve as a reference to a broad spectrum of readers.
