Dear Colleagues,

We would like to announce an interdisciplinary research topic in the 
journal "Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience" titled:

*"Neuromechanics and control of physical behavior: From experimental and 
computational formulations to bio-inspired technologies" *

Please visit the Research Topic page for further details on the scope, 
and instructions for abstract submissions: 
http://journal.frontiersin.org/researchtopic/4698

Important Dates:
Abstract submission until: 31.07.2016
Manuscript submission until: 31.12.2016

This topic is intended to bring together research on the neuromuscular 
control and biomechnical aspects of physical behavior in humans and 
animals. This combined view enables new basic science directions by 
understanding the interrelations between movement neural and mechanical 
function. This multidisciplinary approach can also be leveraged for the 
development of personalized wearable technologies to augment or restore 
the motor capabilities of healthy or impaired individuals. In keeping 
with this broad context, we encourage submissions from researchers 
working at the intersection of neuroscience, biomechanics and robotics.

The field of Frontiers in Neuroscience (which includes the journal 
Computational Neuroscience) is the most cited and largest Open Access 
publisher of Neuroscience. Research Topic submissions will receive a 
discount of 15% on the Open Access publishing fees.

We look forward to your contributions and to furthering this 
interdisciplinary dialogue.

Best Regards,

Research Topic Editors:

     -    Manish Sreenivasa (U. Heidelberg, Germany)
     -    Alfred Schouten (U. Twente / TU Delft, Netherlands)
     -    Matthew Tresch (U. Northwestern, USA)
