The numerical brain: forward and inverse problems in neuroscience applications

The numerical brain: forward and inverse problems in neuroscience applications

Bespoke numerical methods for neurobiological networks may have a deep impact on our understanding of the brain, but the interplay between numerical analysis and computational or experimental neuroscience is still greatly unexplored.

This workshop aims to create an international network of researchers focused on developing numerical methods for simulating brain processes and inferring parameters or states. We are bringing these experts together with scientists who specialize in general data assimilation methods and uncertainty quantification, both within and outside the field of neuroscience.

Dates, venue, and registration

The workshop, co-organised by Daniele Avitabile and Svetlana Dubinkina (Amsterdam Centre for Dynamics and Computation), will be held on the 21-23 October 2024, in room D665 of the MF building of the VU Amsterdam campus (you can find the MF building on this map).

The meeting will start at 9:45 on the 21st of October, and terminate at 12:30 on the 23rd (a more detailed scheduled will be published in due course).

Registration to the event is free of charge but mandatory, with the option of purchasing a ticket for the social dinner on the 22nd of October.

PhD and Postdocs can submit a lightning presentation (max 5 mins).

Please register within the 7th of October following the instructions on this webpage.
