Neuroprosthetics in systems neuroscience and medicine

Our accumulating knowledge in systems neuroscience combined with the development of innovative technologies may enable brain restoration for patients with nervous system disorders. This Collection provides a platform for interdisciplinary research in neuroprosthetics. It will gather studies investigating medical applications of systems neuroscience, informatics, and engineering in the development of neural prostheses. Submissions with a clinical focus on nervous system diseases and brain repair in either humans or animals are also included.
