Neuroengineering
Joint lab with the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and IT, RWTH Aachen
The "Neuroelectronic Interfaces" (NEI) Group is a Joint Lab with the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and IT, RWTH Aachen.
The Group is working on Neuroengineering, neuromorphic biohybrids and, within the ERC project BRAIN-ACT, on next generation of interactive biohybrid platforms.
Our research topics are focussed on:
