Miniature Insect Model for Active Learning (MINIMAL)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2014, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2016,
Biology provides the inspiration for a vision of small low-power devices that are able to learn rapidly and autonomously about environmental contingencies, enabling prediction and adaptive anticipatory action. Larval Drosophila have fewer than 10,000 neurons, yet express a variety of complex orientation and learning behaviours, including non-trivial anticipatory actions requiring context-dependent ...

BrainTrain: Integrative neuroscience school on brain function and disease (BrainTrain)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2009, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2013,
Brain disorders, in particular neurodegenerative diseases and mental illnesses are among the most prevalent and debilitating diseases. Because they are chronic, quality of life and socio-economic prospects are dramatically impaired. Increased life expectancy further enhances the impact of brain dysfunction on society. In coming decades this burden will grow into one of most pressing and costly pro ...
