Spiking neural networks: Applications to computing, algorithmics, and robotics - 18 September 2019, Munich, Germany
Spiking neural networks (SNN) are a special class of artificial neural networks (ANN), in which the information is transmitted by means of pulses (or spikes) rather than by firing rates.
As SNNs have shown to be excellent control systems for biological organisms, they have the potential to produce good control systems for autonomous robots.
This workshop aims to bring together neuroscientists with roboticists and computational researchers developing biologically-inspired learning algorithms for scientific and industrial applications. In order to enrich the discussions of SNN and its applications to computing, algorithm...

Parkinson's disease: causes and cures - 8 November 2018, Brussels, Belgium
The workshop aims to provide a kaleidoscopic view of the latest research, treatments, and ways forward towards better understanding and being able to cure Parkinson's disease. The workshop aims to moreover look at how greater funding could enable such steps forward, both clinically and politically - especially in light of negotiations on the upcoming research framework programme, Horizon Europe. Finally, the session will also explore the possible links between toxins (herbicides and pesticides) with the disease.
Parkinson’s is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder having no known cause, typically with onset later...
