Essentials of neurophysiology: basic concepts and clinical applications for scientists and engineers

These lectures provide the basic understanding of various clinical signs and symptoms from a thorough insight into basic principles of neurology, (neuro-)physiology and neuroanatomy. The primary audience is therefore students whose future work will be in these fields, however with the goals of typical clinicalmedical specialists driving the technological evolution. These students are primarily trained to contribute to new developments and innovations in neurology and clinical neurophysiology. They are confronted with patients but are not trained for routine patient care. Rather, their skills are technologically based knowledge, ranging from sensor technology to mathematical modeling, or advanced signal analysis. First steps to understand the complexity of our brain function Provides a good understanding of fundamentals and principles of Neurology Very illustrative writing with many examples Includes Problems as well as solutions to the problems at the end of the book INDICE: Introduction.- Excitable Cells and Action Potentials.- Propagationof the Action Potential.- Neural circuits and systems.- Basic Measurement Principles.- Stimulation of nervous tissue.- Electromyography.- Electroencephalography.- Neurotechnology.- Rational Decision Making.
