This open access book offers a timely and comprehensive review of the field of neurotronics.
Gathering cutting-edge contributions from neuroscientists biologists psychologists as well
as physicists microelectronics engineers and information scientists it gives extensive
information on fundamental information pathways in selected nervous systems. It also highlights
their relevance as building blocks for novel computing architectures such as bio-inspired
electronic devices neuromorphic architectures memristive devices adaptive sensors and
emergent pulsed-coupled oscillatory networks. All in all this book offers a unique bridge
between fundamental research in neuroscience neural information processing nonlinear dynamics
and self-organization and advanced practical applications concerning the fabrication of
hardware-oriented computing.
