Conference on the Neurone as a Computational Unit, June 28--July 1, 1988, King's College, Cambridge, England

计算神经科学是一个正在发展的子领域 目前，迅速。 把我们所知道的 将神经系统的功能转化为定量的术语， 电脑变得越来越有吸引力， 已经收集了足够的数据 有问题的系统。 各部分的数学模型 神经系统目前正被生理学家很好地研究 受过工程方法学的训练。 但现在工程师们 有兴趣使用大脑的各种系统建模， 他们的观点。 此操作是为一个 国际会议将汇集 来自不同国家的神经生理学家和神经工程师 讨论关于建模方法的重要问题， 神经科学

Computational neuroscience is a subfield which is growing quickly at the present time. Putting what we know about the functioning of the nervous system into quantitative terms is becoming more appealing now that computers are affordable, easy to work with and sufficient data has been gathered about the systems in question. Mathematical models of various parts of the nervous system are currently being pursued by physiologists well trained in engineering methodology. But now engineers have taken an interest in modelling the various systems of the brain using their perspective. This action is to provide partial support for an international conference which will bring together neurophysiologists and neuroengineers from various countries to discuss important issues regarding modelling approaches in neuroscience.
