Neural engineers are uniquely qualified to solve design problems at the interface of living neural tissue and non-living constructs. ** See June, 2008 article at [[http://www.technologyreview.com/Biotech/20856/|Technology Review]] ** \\ ** See 2010 article in [[http://www.rps.psu.edu/indepth/brainstorm_print.html|Penn State Research Magazine]]**\\ [[PhD|New Neural Engineering Track in the Engineering Sciences and Mechanics Ph.D. Program]] [[MD-PhD|Penn State College of Medicine MD-PhD Program and Engineering Sciences and Mechanics]] ===== Courses ===== | Course Name |F 2011 | S2010 | F2009 | S2009 | F2008 | S2008 | F2007 | S2007 | F2006 | | [[#Fund.

It is housed within facilities of the Department of Neurosurgery and the Department of Engineering Science and Mechanics. The Center is positioned to facilitate and enable collaboration between faculty from the Huck Institutes for the Life Sciences, Materials Research, and Neuroscience Institutes at Penn State, and forms a physical conduit for faculty and students from across the Engineering Departments, the Integrative Biosciences Neuroscience Program, Physics, Mathematics, and Biology, as well as trainees and faculty from Neurosurgery, Neurology, and Psychiatry. The Center has resident core faculty, with a considerable number of faculty Affiliates drawn from University Park and Hershey. The Center enables the successful conduct of interdisciplinary research and acquisition of funding for projects that individual Penn State scientists could not perform on their own...
