Neurobionics

Neurobionics is aimed at the objective to substitute failed and damaged parts of the human brain and spinal cord by artificial, implantable systems of information processing. Thereby, the nonlinear aspects of biological information processing provide the theoretical basis for the invention of artificial implantable microsystems.[1]

In 1992 Neurobionics was founded by Hans-Werner Bothe organizing the 1st International workshop on Neurobionics in Goslar as a novel faculty between neurobiology, neurotechnology, computational neuroscience, and clinical neuromedicine.[2]
