Abstract

This chapter presents an overview of emerging research problems at the boundary between control engineering and neuroscience, toward implementation of closed-loop paradigms for modulating brain activity. Emphasis will be placed on both recent theoretical developments-eg, system identification and controllability in neuronal networks-and real-world constraints in applications such as clinical deep brain stimulation, or optical stimulation in experimental neuroscience. Discussion will extend to how these constraints may necessitate the development of entirely new paradigms in systems and control theory that respond to the unprecedented challenges facing neuroscientists and neural engineers.
