With the fast advancement of neuroimaging techniques and the subsequent development of sophisticated signal-analytic methodologies, connectivity can nowadays be assessed in various ways. Often, the descriptive power of graphs is exploited by turning connectivity measurements into [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Can bioengineering immitate the analog to digital conversion performed by our inner ear? How do organs such as the inner ear deal with the imprecision of analog computing? If analog computing is so marvelously efficient, why is almost every electronic system you come accross digital? Do brain cells share interesting characteristics with subthreshold transistors and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The development of organic computers, which use mammalian neurons to process or store information or neurological prosthetics for overcoming disorders of the central nervous system, might sound like the background plot for Terminator 4. However, breakthroughs achieved within the NACHIP project, funded under the Sixth Framework Programme (FP6) and developed by researchers in Germany, Italy [...]]]></description>
