Further Information

Courses are together with exams the building blocks for modules. Please keep in mind that information on the contents, learning outcomes and, especially examination conditions are given on the module level only – see section "Assignment to Modules" above.

additional remarks "The lecture covers the theoretical foundations of neuroprostheses, which are solved numerically in the practical course. As the underlying principle of all neuroprostheses is the electrical excitation of neurons, we will cover this topic in depth. In the practical computer laboratory (2SWS), which complements the lecture (2SWS), we implement a computer model of a cochlea implant and model how it will stimulate the auditory nerve. Topcis: - MatLab introduction - numerical solution of linear and nonlinear differential equations - simulation of electrical field spread - electrical models of cells and neurons - simulation of the electrical stimulation of neurons - anatomy und funktion of the hearing organ - implementation of a coding strategy for a cochlear implant - biocompatibility and foreign body reactions"
