A key aspect of neuromorphic engineering is understanding how the [[Morphology (biology)|morphology]] of individual neurons, circuits, applications, and overall architectures creates desirable computations, affects how [[information]] is represented, influences robustness to damage, incorporates learning and development, adapts to local change (plasticity), and facilitates evolutionary change.
