👉 Nervous engineering, also known as neuroengineering, is an interdisciplinary field that combines principles from neuroscience, electrical engineering, and biomedical engineering to design and develop technologies that interact with the nervous system. This field aims to understand, diagnose, treat, and potentially enhance neural functions by creating devices and systems that can interface with neurons, muscles, or the brain. Applications include neuroprosthetics, which restore lost motor functions in paralyzed individuals, neural implants for treating neurological disorders like Parkinson's disease, and brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) that allow direct communication between the brain and external devices. Nervous engineering also focuses on developing advanced materials and techniques for neural recording and stimulation, enabling researchers to map brain activity and develop therapies that can repair or replace damaged neural circuits. This field holds significant promise for improving the quality of life for individuals with neurological conditions and advancing our understanding of the brain's complex functions.
