Phase-1 took place online in June 10-11
Structure
Assuming unlimited access to organismal data, what are important theoretical challenges that we still need to solve in order to understand the neuromechanical basis of behavior?
Chair: Eduardo Izquierdo. Thu. 1-3p EST
How do the same neural circuits produce different behaviors, different circuits the same behavior, and what is the role of parallel, redundant, or even antagonistic circuits?
Chair: Eva Naumann, Thu. 3-5p EST
Social hour
Thu. 5-6p EST
Navigation circuits in brains and intelligent machines - functional logic of key computational and memory elements.
Chair: Aurel A. Lazar. Fri. 1-3p EST
This session will reverse the usual order of discussion by presenting a question followed by an argument, instead of an argument, followed by questions.
Chair: Gal Haspel. Fri. 3:05-5p EST
General Discussion
Fri. 5:05-6p EST
Guidelines
Only speakers will have their cameras and microphones on (we have 518 registered attendees).
Each speaker will present, uninterrupted for 10 minutes, followed by questions and discussion from other speakers and by chat from registered attendees.
In some sessions there will be a general discussion.
Privacy: We will record the workshop for documentation purposes. If speakers agree, we will share their presentation and the following discussion on the meeting website, but only with their explicit permission.
