Episode 83 -- Neural Dynamics Symposium 2012

Tuesday, March 20, 2012

The UTSA Neurosciences institute hosted an all-star panel of computational neuroscientists for a symposium on "Neural Dynamics & Coding."  This discussion, recorded after the day's talks, has Todd Troyer leading the group in covering a wide range of topics, including how to talk about coding as you move toward behavior, the distinction between coding and computation, and how much of neural computation is centralized vs. offloaded to peripheral systems.
