MEASUREMENT AND CONTROL FACILITIES FOR INVESTIGATING NEURON SYSTEMS

A review is given of the present state of the development and introduc tion of measuring and control facilities utilizing electromagnetic con trolling devices. The existence of a broad class of automated faciliti es with software makes it possible to implant working instruments into brain structures, to specify their motion, to measure the physical pa rameters of the tissues, and to control the activity of neuron network systems of the brain automatically. The biological aspects of using s uch facilities are discussed.
