Department of Biomedical Engineering: BME NeuroengineeringResearch Themes at Emory

Neuroengineering is the application of engineering technologies and techniques to both interface to the normal nervous system as well as augment or replace parts of the compromised nervous system. At Georgia Tech and Emory, we are advancing the understanding of fundamental neural properties including sensorimotor control, learning, information processing, response to physical trauma, and complex neural dynamics. We are also engaged in developing novel technologies inspired by the disciplines of mathematics, biomechanics, robotics, MEMs, robotics, electrical engineering, optical microscopy, biomaterials and tissue engineering. These methods are applied with goals ranging from basic science to clinical application to further our understanding of normal neurophysiology and to help repair damaged brain, spinal or peripheral nervous tissue.
