Brains@Bay – The Role of Active Dendrites in Learning
August 26, 2020
In this meetup, we focus on the role of active dendrites in learning from a neuroscience and a computational perspective. We invited Matthew Larkum (Larkum Lab), Ilenna Jones (Kording Lab) and Blake Richards (Linc Lab) to present their views on the role of active dendrites in machine learning.

Brains@Bay – Lateral Connections in the Neocortex
July 03, 2020
In this special edition we focus on the function of lateral connections (connections between neurons within a level). Long-range lateral connections are ubiquitous in the neocortex and cannot be explained by pure feedforward models. We have invited researchers from the Allen Institute for Brain Science to discuss their recently published paper on modeling these connections.
