Human Brain Project scientists present new approach to reveal neuronal learning principles with algorithms that mimick biological evolution

The Diversity and Equal Opportunities Committee (DEOC) invites you to apply for the DIRPA, if your publication considers diversity traits such as sex, gender, age, ethnicity, etc. in your specific field of research like neuroscience, AI, Robotics.

The Human Brain Project is proud to share that one if its Lead Scientists, Jean-Pierre Changeux, Institut Pasteur, College de France, Kavli Institute, University of California San Diego, has been named as one of the few world-class Citation Laureates by the global research and information company, Clarivate.

Whether seen from the point of view of the individual citizen, patient or policy-maker, brain health will gain a growing centrality in the current decade. This development will be a function of three emerging developments.

The Lancet Neurology recently published a paper with Professor P. Ryvlin, one of the Human Brain Project scientific experts, as lead author.

Researchers in the Human Brain Project work on a new solution for sensitive medical data

A research team from the University of Milan demonstrate in a study recently published in Human Brain Mapping that their new method AnonyMI outperforms previous strategies to deidentify MRI data with minimal loss of geometric information, facilitating data sharing in accordance with data protection regulations.

Scientists from Heidelberg and Bern have succeeded in training spiking neural networks to solve complex tasks with extreme energy efficiency. The advance was enabled by the BrainScaleS-2 neuromorphic platform, which can be accessed online as part of the EBRAINS research infrastructure.

Day two of the Human Brain Project Scientific Conference started with a strong focus on brain-inspired technologies. Giacomo Invideri (ETH Zurich) presented an illuminating keynote on “Neuromorphic Computing and Engineering: Past, Present and Future”.

The Human Brain Project has opened its 8th annual Summit with presentations of new scientific insights and a powerful new infrastructure for brain research – EBRAINS
