@ Vincent Costa, Ph.D.Assistant Professor, Division of NeuroscienceOregon National Primate Research CenterOregon Health & Science University Disynaptic motivational circuits regulate decisions to explore or exploit Motivational circuits facilitate reinforcement learning and support computations relevant for solving the explore-exploit dilemma. But it has been difficult to dissect the neural circuits involved in exploration, since these choices […]
@ Hiroyuki Kato, Ph.D.Associate ProfessorDepartment of Psychiatry & Neuroscience CenterUniversity of North Carolina Chapel Hill Sensory Integration along the Auditory Cortical Hierarchy Our brain’s ability to parse overlapping sounds and reconstruct individual perceptual sound objects is essential in navigating acoustically complex environments. Despite ample evidence suggesting the critical roles of higher-order auditory cortices in integrating […]
Daniel Wilson, a research fellow at the Alan Turing Institute, explores the potential applications of computational techniques for the exploration of the history of science and technology. He will be discussing work that he completed as part of "Living with Machines," a groundbreaking research project to reconsider the industrial revolution in the UK through data driven […]

@ Stefan Mihalas, Ph.D.InvestigatorAllen Institute for Brain Science Computing with complex components: How heterogeneous, nonstationary and noisy neurons and synapses contribute to the brain’s computational power While artificial neural networks have taken inspiration from biological ones, one salient difference exists at the level of components. Artificial networks are generally built with homogeneous, stationary and deterministic […]
Neural Mechanisms Underlying Adult Ocular Dominance Plasticity: Hebbian or Homeostatic? @ Daniel Tso, PhDAssociate Professor of Neurosurgery,Neuroscience and Physiology,& Ophthalmology and Visual SciencesSUNY Upstate Medical UniversitySyracuse, NY Recent studies in adult humans have shown that short-term deprivation of one eye (STMD, 1-3hrs) dramatically shifts the balance in favor of this eye for over an hour […]
