Satellite track: Supporting Research in Cognitive Computational Neuroscience (CCN) – BBSRC sponsored session

Partner Session

Information

Convened by BBSRC

The BBSRC ‘Supporting Research in Cognitive Computational Neuroscience’ call was established to foster research partnerships across the interface of cognitive science, neuroscience, and artificial intelligence, while addressing the challenges in realising the bi-directional and beneficial flow of expertise, data, and information-sharing between these disciplines. This symposium brings together researchers supported through this grant to showcase recent advances in cognitive computational neuroscience and provides an opportunity for networking with the wider cognitive science and neuroscience community. The session will be chaired by Professor Laurence Hunt, Department of Experimental Psychology at the University of Oxford.
