PBL - 08

Met Ni Jun before the meeting to find out what he did overnite. Seems he managed to read up on the basics on mucle and nerve physiology. Complements well with my work.

Had an eventful second meeting with Prof Hanry, got a lot of learning issues. Ni Jun and myself are supposed to find out about the muscle and nerve physiology involved in grasping function (all 5 digits if possible. I think we narrowed down the problem definition to using BCI to control a neuroprosthetic arm to enable hand grasping function in the patient. Yixiang titled the problem as BCI controlled artificial limb.

After the meeting, had a little chat with Prof Yu on what actually PBL is, how the group is coping with the different kind of teamtask, what my opinions are about PBL,...Oh yeah, we also talked about GPBE, GSC and the new regime changes and stuff.
