The common housefly executes exquisitely precise and complex aerobatics with less computational might than an electric toaster
Our goal is to understand flight control from the insect’s perspective. What we have learned so far, and what we expect the experiment to confirm, is that the fly uses a flight control paradigm that is completely different from that of a fighter jet.

Polymer nanowires threaded through the bloodstream may be a practical way to enter the cranium
By threading nanowires through blood vessels in the neck, researchers hope to access the brain electrically and electronically without having to pierce the skull.

This section provides an introduction to the analysis of data obtained from using small extracellular electrodes to record neural activity.
There’s a great deal of interesting stuff to be learned from analyzing simultaneously recorded spike trains. Probably the most popular analysis involves the construction of the crosscorrelograms and JPSTHs.
MULAB, University of Pennsylvania provides an excellent tutorial on these issues.
