Research on fundamental properties and collaborative operation of neo-cortical microcircuitry has accelerated in the recent years, driven by the conviction that a deeper understanding of human brain will open the way to the development of new medical techniques. Microelectronics, as well as very large-scale integration (VLSI) have reached a state of maturity, where a single chip provides large amounts of computing power density, still leaving open questions in terms of power consumption, and thermal power dissipation. Recent attempts in combining these two fields of investigation have successfully demonstrated the possible implementation of some form of mutual responsiveness between microelectronic circuitry and living matter. New hardware tools are being developed, enabling neuro-physiological experiments to be conducted in vitro, as well as in vivo, recently including human implantation of semi-permanent microelectronic systems.
