You may already know, but IBM has some nice articles on that:
Genetic algorithms applied with Perl

    What do genetic algorithms have to do with neural nets?
      I wondered about that, so I went and looked it up. Genetic algorithms have been used to derive weight sets for a fully recurrent single layer net to handle the cart and pole problem, a textbook example of NN in control systems. Its an intriguing idea, but a lot more work to implement than a simple backprop net.
