Using AI and ML to Predict Autism Spectrum Disorder

Using AI and ML to Predict Autism Spectrum Disorder 789 444 IEEE Pulse

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are beginning to make headway into medical diagnosis, and its prospects are particularly evident among those complex health conditions that have no obvious single cause and for which conclusive medical tests remain elusive.

Challenges and Opportunities for Physiologically Controlled Therapy in Neural Systems 789 444 IEEE Pulse

Brain stimulation technology for the treatment of neurological disorders is rapidly evolving. With the advent of “bidirectional” systems, such as the Medtronic Percept, which are able to sense from and stimulate the brain simultaneously, there is opportunity to modify stimulation based on changes in brain activity.

Neuroengineering—Engineering the Nervous System 789 444 IEEE Pulse

Neuroengineering, also known as neural engineering, is a rapidly expanding interdisciplinary field that bridges neuroscience and engineering. It encompasses research at the cellular, tissue, and systems levels, and has become a core discipline within biomedical engineering and beyond. By applying engineering principles and methods, neuroengineering studies the nervous system and develops techniques for diagnosing, treating, and rehabilitating neurological disorders.

In an era where technology is expanding at a rapid rate and the needs for medical application of these technologies has never been greater, the intersection between engineering, medicine and biology is a critical place to be. The IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society is well-positioned to serve as a central gathering point for both of these major disciplines.
