 +======Block course in Insights in Neuroinformatics (ETH 227-1049-00L) ======
  
 +This page has material for the block course for 5th semester biology students.
 +
 +This part of the course is taught by Tobi Delbruck and is about biological and silicon retinas.
 +
 +The teaching assistants for 2014 are Chenghan Li and Minhao Yang.
