Neural Circuits: Coding, Computation and Cognition
The 2025 Summer Program will explore neural circuit computations that underlie higher cognitive functions, using both experimental and theoretical approaches. The program will focus on brain functions such as memory, spatial navigation, and motor control, addressing topics from computations in microcircuits composed of neurons and glial cells to network activity across distributed brain areas.
