The AIRE master and FIRE Phd program are happy to invite you to their thematic workshop: Neuroscience, emergence of intelligence out of complex systems. The workshop will consist on talks about different areas of neuroscience. Covered topics range from brain computer interfaces, social brain connectomes, plant neurobiology to calcium and ultrasound imaging.
Free lunch and coffee break will be provided to the attendees
