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.
The impaired brain is often difficult to restore, owing to our limited knowledge of the complex nervous system. Accumulating knowledge in systems neuroscience, combined with the development of innovative technologies, may enable brain restoration in patients with nervous system disorders that are currently untreatable. The Neuroprosthetics in Systems Neuroscience and Medicine Collection provides a platform for interdisciplinary research in neuroprosthetics.
