ECE 5040 - Introduction to Neural Engineering

(crosslisted) BME 5040

Spring. 3 credits. Student option grading.

Prerequisite: ECE 4530 and ECE 2200, or permission of instructor.

Staff.

This course is a broad interdisciplinary introduction to the field of neural engineering. The goal is to offer students a hands-on experience to learn about circuits, devices, and algorithms for diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders such as epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, etc. Topics include basic neural physiology, various methods to measure brain activity, practical aspects of electrical recording and related circuits, large-scale neural data acquisition and processing, feature analysis and classification, neuromodulation techniques for closed-loop control and therapeutic intervention, and discussion of emerging topics.
