Abstract :
Neural engineering is an emerging discipline to understand the organizational principles and underlying mechanisms of the biology of neural systems and to study the behavior dynamics and complexity of neural systems in nature. In this presentation, we will briefly overview the recent developments in this emerging field, Neural Engineering from neurogenesis to neurochips. Then we will discuss the ongoing research activities at the Neural Engineering and Informatics Lab at ASU. We focus on our recent finding about the relative contributions of maturation to the dynamical behavior of respiration during ontogeny in the neonate and the underlying mechanisms of the respiratory network.
