Neural Prostheses: Motor Systems IV Conference; Columbus, Ohio; July 23-28, 1994

9319988 Peckham来自凯斯西储大学的这份提案要求部分支持举办一个题为神经假体的研讨会：第四届运动系统会议。 研讨会的重点是工程和临床专业知识的整合，开发设备，恢复功能的个人与运动障碍;加快神经假体从工程实验室转移到临床和制造业;并教育年轻的研究人员。 国际科学会议是每三年举行一次的一系列会议中的第四次。 将举行的会议包括下肢，上肢，膀胱和呼吸的神经假体;电极，导线和连接器;肌肉和肌肉特性;反馈控制策略;命令控制;和技术转让。 研讨会的演讲者和参与者都是运动控制神经假体的世界领导者。 国家科学基金会要求提供的资金将为应邀参加者提供部分支助。 研讨会与会者将提交四篇论文供同行评审的期刊发表，从而使研讨会的结果提供给广大受众。 ***

9319988 Peckham This proposal from Case Western Reserve University requests partial support to conduct a symposium entitled Neural Prostheses: Motor Systems IV Conference. The symposium focuses on integration of engineering and clinical expertise in developing devices that restore function for individuals with motor impairments; to expedite the transference of neural prostheses from the engineering laboratory to the clinic and manufacturing industry; and to educate young researchers. The international scientific meeting is the fourth in a series of conferences held every three years. Sessions to be held include neural prostheses for lower extremity, upper extremity, bladder, and respiratory; electrodes, leads, and connectors; muscle and muscle properties; feedback control strategies; command control; and technology transfer. Presenter participants in the symposium are world leaders in neural prostheses for motor control. Funding requested from the NSF would provide partial support for invited participants. Four papers will be submitted for peer reviewed journal publication by symposium participants, thereby making symposium results available to a large audience. ***
