More About This Title Neurotechnologies in Systems Neuroscience

English

The key to developing a comprehensive theory of brain function is understanding the brain on a circuit or systems level. New technologies that have been developed over the last two decades now offer researchers unprecedented tools for studying the brain and have led to the rapid development of the field of Systems Neuroscience. Neurotechnologies in Systems Neuroscience: New Technologies for Understanding and Manipulating Brain Circuits and Computations is a timely collection of work that seeks to provide a valuable overview of technological advances and breakthroughs now being applied in research.
