Human-machine interface (HMI) techniques use bioelectrical signals to gain real-time
synchronised communication between the human body and machine functioning. HMI …

Future technologies aiming at restoring and enhancing organs function will intimately rely on
near-physiological and energy-efficient communication between living and artificial …

Brain function relies on circuits of spiking neurons with synapses playing the key role of
merging transmission with memory storage and processing. Electronics has made important …

The neural recordings known as Local Field Potentials (LFPs) provide important information
on how neural circuits operate and relate. Due to the involvement of complex electronic …

This expanded and updated edition of the 2007 version introduces readers from various
