Text Excerpt:

“Many of the critical advances that are emerging can be attributed to the interactions between the biological systems and the technology. The integration of technology with biology makes us more productive in the workplace, makes medical devices more effective, and makes our entertainment systems more engaging. Our lives change as biology and technology merge to form biohybrid systems. This book describes some of the recent advances and some of the key challenges faced by engineers and scientists developing biohybrid systems that interface nerves, muscles, and machines.”
