Challenges spur development of unique rehabilitative and therapeutic
interventions.

Neuroengineering brings tools and techniques from the engineering fields into
neuroscience to create new approaches for investigating the central nervous
system (CNS). This fusion of disciplines is advancing our knowledge of how
the CNS works and how we can enhance our natural cognitive and emotional
function and restore neurological functions that are compromised by disease
or injury.

This article highlights a few areas where neuroengineering is making unique
and valuable contributions.

    Neuroprosthetics
    Neurodegenerative Diseases
    Brain-Machine Interface
    Interacting with Machines: Exchanging Thoughts and Emotions
