Discussing computational and theoretical neuroscience publications

For the AI & NS J Club, there are no official presenters each time; instead, we present and discuss the paper in turns. This requires every attendee to read the paper in advance.

When: 10:00a on Fridays (monthly; dates to be determined each time)
Where
: Fort Neuroscience Research Building 10102* (NRB, 10th floor; Medical Campus)
*Unless noted below
OrganizerKaining Zhang (Tavoni lab, WashU Neuroscience) and Zeyuan Ye (Wessel lab, WashU Physics)

Note that individual events are listed on the ONR Calendar.
