neurally

Via nerve pathways

In a manner relating to nerves or the nervous system.

The term appears most often in scientific contexts describing how neurons function or communicate: neurally mediated responses, neurally controlled prosthetics.

In computing, it describes processes involving neural networks: The system was neurally trained on millions of images.
