Summary on Grant Application Form
The research foci of this feasibility account will be at the interfaces between Biology, in particular Neuroscience, and Informatics and Engineering. These aim at new systems level understandings and the transfer of these understanding to bio-inspired technology, and to the development of new kinds of diagnostic tools for next-generation healthcare. Major themes, covered by a suite of feasibility studies, will be: The investigation of new tools and techniques for measuring, interpreting and modelling electrical activity in neuronal networks The investigation of the applicability of dynamical systems analyses to early diagnosis of cerebral palsy The investigation of the applicability to robotics of new models of biological sensing, learning and memory
