DESCRIPTION:Research on fundamental properties and collaborative operation
  of neo-cortical microcircuitry has accelerated in the recent years\, driv
 en by the conviction that a deeper understanding of human brain will open 
 the way to the development of new medical techniques. Microelectronics\, a
 s well as very large-scale integration (VLSI) have reached a state of matu
 rity\, where a single chip provides large amounts of computing power densi
 ty\, still leaving open questions in terms of power consumption\, and ther
 mal power dissipation. Recent attempts in combining these two fields of in
 vestigation have successfully demonstrated the possible implementation of 
 some form of mutual responsiveness between microelectronic circuitry and l
 iving matter. New hardware tools are being developed\, enabling neuro-phys
 iological experiments to be conducted in vitro\, as well as in vivo\, rece
 ntly including human implantation of semi-permanent microelectronic system
 s.\nExperts from The National Chiao Tung University\, Hsinchu\, TW\, The E
 cole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne EPFL\, CH\, and the nano-tera.ch
  community gather at the WBMTSR-2014 Workshop on Biomedical Microelectroni
 c Translational Systems Research on the EPFL\, Lausanne campus to present 
 their latest results. The themes of the Workshop include but are not limit
 ed to:\n• Biomedical circuits and systems\, bioelectronic interfaces\, i
 n-vivo/in-vitro applications\n• Implantable systems\, design\, packaging
 \, implantation techniques\, practical experiences\n• Neuroprosthetic sy
 stems\, control and implementations\n• Bio-medical and bio-electronics t
 ranslational research.
