India has witnessed a great deal of progress in advanced neu roscience research and it is standing on the top as a Neuroscience hotspot amongst the developing countries\, due to the excellent platform created by the Indian government in the last decade .The World Health Organization recently listed neurological and psychiatric disorders as a global emerge ncy\, with the numbers of people affected by such disorders predicted to i ncrease over the next 25 years will be massive. There are no effective tre atments for majority of the neurological and psychiatric disorders.
\ n
\nKnowledge on Neural Engineering will enable the world to explore the workings of the brain from molecules to neural systems. This knowledge will be beneficial for the society only when the outcome of fundamental r esearch can be translated for better diagnosis and treatment of nervous sy stem disorders. Technological developments\, coupled with a stronger under standing of biological processes brought about by cutting-edge research\, create new areas within biomedical engineering. Translational Neural Engin eering is a new and rapidly advancing area of biomedical research and also seen as a promising field among the neuro research community to address v arious issues in neural science. It provides a closer interaction between basic and clinical neuroscientists to expand understanding of brain struct ure\, function and disease\, and translate this knowledge into clinical ap plications and novel therapies of nervous system disorders.
