NSF’s Emerging Frontiers in Research and Innovation (EFRI) office funded 4 very futuristic neuroengineering grants.

  1. Deep learning in mammalian cortex
  2. Studying neural networks in vitro with an innovative patch clamp array
  3. Determining how the brain controls the hand for robotics
  4. In vitro power grid simulation using real neurons

Disclaimer: I was involved with the second proposal on this page.
