Neural engineering

Neural engineering (also known as neuroengineering) is a discipline within biomedical engineering that uses engineering techniques to understand, repair, replace, or enhance neural systems. Neural engineers are uniquely qualified to solve design problems at the interface of living neural tissue and non-living constructs (http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1741-2560/5/3/N01/pdf Hetling, 2008).
