The Virtual Brain project aims to support the simulation of whole brain models. Here we discuss the state of the art and the challenges TVB is facing.
Touch, the brain and the advanced experimental paradigms and models Vincent pursues to understand both.
The self-organization of the neocortex following epigenetic principles. Stewart aims to understand the nature of this interaction between brain and behaviour by allowing models of map self-organisation to guide the movement of simulated animal
New developments at the intersection of neuroscience and information technology have the potential to be socially and ethically disruptive. We discuss with Christine ideas of social responsibility in science.
The predictive coding framework departs from the divide of perception, cognition, and action, and provides a unifying framework in which the organism minimizes surprise. In the podcast we discuss the implications of this framework.
Maarja Kruusma (Tallin University of Technology) studies the building of fish, focusing especially on swimming. With Paul Verschure she discusses the importance of morphological details and body control, as well as biomimetical approac
Tony Prescott interviews Paul Verschure on his theory of the brain and how it has given rise to new hypotheses on the function and mechanisms of conscicousness
We discuss the question of how biological and artificial systems can explore and find information relative to their goals. In response, Daniel explains his notion of "Empowerment".
Bechir and Uhrig discuss their work on the mechanisms of consciousness as revealed through anaesthesia.
Bechir and Uhrig discuss their work on the mechanisms of consciousness as revealed through anaesthesia.
Neil Burgess discusses his latest insights in the memory systems of the brain, the hippocampus, including its experimental and theoretical exploration.
Ton Coolen describes the complex network of the immune system and how theoretical models can help us to understand their function in health and disease.
Semir Zeki speaks on the visual system of the human brain and how it can give rise to aesthetic experiences.
Giacomo Rizzolatti takes us on a tour through his long study of the mirror neuron system of the brain and how it revolutionized the study of mind
Jose Halloy speaks on his experiments where he used robots to investigate the collective behavior of animals.
Matthew E. Diamond (SISSA, Trieste) discusses the neural correlates of decision making, and his studies of that in both humans and rats.
Francesca Cacucci takes us on a tour of the organization of the memory systems of the brain from cells to circuits and behavior.
