智能生命的语言是“离子”，而人工智能的语言是“电子”。智能生命中信号的产生和处理是通过纳米尺寸的离子通道控制离子传输，在微米尺寸的神经元上产生动作电位，进而在宏观神经网络中实现信号传递和信息存贮。为了构筑高通量、低能耗的类脑计算体系，突破智能生命和人工智能信息交流的壁垒，“神经形态感知与计算”实验室围绕离子电子学“类脑智能”和“仿生感知”开展化学、材料、电子、生物等多学科交叉研究。通过模仿智能生物低能耗、高通量信息加工和处理的模式，调控材料的结构和界面构建可控离子传输体系，揭示离/电耦合相互作用规律，构筑以“离子”为语言的类脑感知和计算硬件，制备类生命五感的神经形态感知器件并应用于具身智能和神经假肢。
