  2. System Level Neuroengineering Modeling of Nervous System I. Massaquoi CDC Cancun 2008 I. The Problem to develop increasingly comprehensive, integrated, multi-resolution engineering models of nervous system structure and function Motivations Scientific: i. understanding the principles of human behavior and intelligence in quantitative, mechanistic terms ii. understanding the principles of neurological and psychiatric disease in quantitative, mechanistic terms Engineering: i. design of devices to mimic and potentially supersede human behavior artificially ii. development of devices that better interact with the nervous system to study, restore or extend human function

  3. System Level Neuroengineering Modeling of Nervous System I. System Level Neuroengineering Modeling of Nervous System I. Massaquoi CDC Cancun 2008 • I The Problem (cont’d) • Key Challenges (constraints) for Neuroengineering models: • Models must respect known or highly suspected neuroantomical connections • Models must respect known time delays and phase lags • (these are non-trivial) • C. Models must utilize functions that are known to be achievable by collections of neurons. • (e.g. Quantitative multiplication ?) • Models must be consistent with both normal human function, and pathological dysfunction. • Models of human function should be able to be related to those of animals in a manner consistent with natural evolution (i.e. continuously) • Models must ultimately account for the firing behavior of system neurons • (i.e. must be multi-resolution)

  4. System Level Neuroengineering Modeling of Nervous System I. System Level Neuroengineering Modeling of Nervous System I. Massaquoi CDC Cancun 2008 • I The Problem (cont’d) • Style of approach: Ideal features of Neuroengineering models: • A. Models should seek to explain the nervous system in terms of established engineering principles and abstractions • (e.g. filters, estimators, feedback/feedforward controllers, registers, switches • not simply to formulate a computational model) • B. Models should point to potentially fruitful areas of engineering research where current engineering methods are lacking. • Models are more profitably driven by science, and guided by engineering principles. . . Rather than vice versa • (editorial remark!)
