Welcome to Computation and Neural Systems
 
IN 1986, CALTECH ESTABLISHED an interdisciplinary Ph.D. program to study problems arising at the interface between neurobiology, electrical engineering, computer science, and physics. The unifying theme of today's program is the relationship between the physical structure of a computational system (molecular, neuronal or electronic hardware), the dynamics of its operation, and the computational problems decorative brain imagethat it can efficiently solve. The creation of this multidisciplinary program stems from progress on several fronts: the analysis of complex biological systems at the molecular, neuronal, network and cognitive levels, the modeling and analysis of artificial neural networks and their learning abilities and the emergence of neuromorphic engineering as an independent discipline.
