Computational Neuroscience
Computational neuroscience aspires to understand the principles of neural functions at the circuit and systems levels where cognition and behaviors emerge. The goal relies fundamentally on interdisciplinary knowledge and efforts. This intense week-long course aims to give an in-depth sampling of the field through learning and interacting with experts on various topics.
