🌊 I can't believe it's only 10 days away! Our 6th Conference on the Mathematics of #Neuroscience and #AI in #Split, #Croatia!

The team has put together a quite unheard of line-up, with many of the original and emerging pioneers in these two influential disciplines.

It's a great pleasure to announce @croai.bsky.social as our official local partner for this year's conference on the Mathematics of Neuroscience and AI in Split!

CroAI have done a tremendous job collecting and cultivating the #AI community in #Croatia via talks, workshops, & global representation

Now let’s give a round of applause to @neuroai.bsky.social, who will give an eagerly awaited keynote talk at our upcoming conference on #neuroscience and #AI.

Ida is Principle Researcher at @msftresearch.bsky.social, where they develop novel and innovative #generative AI algorithms!

Today we honor one of computational #neuroscience’s founding parents, Professor Jay McClelland.

Jay, along with Rumelhart, and Hinton @nobelprize.bsky.social, is broadly thought to be responsible for ushering in the second wave of connectionism with their Parallel Distributed Processing book...

This afternoon’s focus is on @neurokim.bsky.social, research scientist at Google DeepMind and affiliate faculty at Columbia—someone that has done tremendously creative work applying computational thinking to both neuroscience and deep learning.

🏆 We are thrilled to announce that @wolframresearch.bsky.social has just generously agreed to sponsor the student poster prizes at our Conference on the Mathematics of Neuroscience & AI in Croatia 🏝️

The top student submissions will receive a prize of a year of Wolfram|One Professional worth $1660

🎵 It’s a great pleasure to have the distinguished Prof Wolfgang Maass give the second keynote of our Neuro x AI conference.

Prof Maass, at @tugraz.bsky.social, has been a driving force at the intersection of theoretical neuroscience, computational complexity, and machine learning.

We’re most fortunate to have Professor Eve Marder, one of the great pioneers in systems neuroscience, give the opening keynote at our conference later this month in Split, Croatia.

Recipient of both the @kavliprize.bsky.social and Brain prize, faculty @brandeisuniversity.bsky.social.

💥 Over the next five days I’ll be posting about a set of early and emerging pioneers in #neuroscience and #AI research!

With over 500,000 citations between them, their stories neatly track the intertwined development of two of the most influential fields for the 21st century.

💥 Do we now have all the components necessary to reach #AGI, or are there more discoveries to be made? Can the study of the brain help provide them?

We tackle these questions and more at our Conference on the Mathematics of Neuroscience and AI in sun-soaked Split, Croatia:
