A High-Dimensional View of Neuroscience

Tutorial session at Cognitive Computational Neuroscience (CCN) 2023.

 

Motivation


Advances in technology enable us to record neural responses to many thousands of stimuli from a huge number of channels (e.g., fMRI in humans, two-photon imaging in mice, neuropixel probes in monkeys). Given the unprecedented scale of these data -- collected with incredible effort at enormous expense -- what computational tools can we use to study neural representations in high dimensions? What theoretical insights can we gain about the nature of neural representations from large-scale datasets?

 

Date and location


The tutorial will take place on Saturday, August 26, 2023 @ 10:45 - 12:30 at East Schools (Oxford campus). A recording will also be available shortly after the CCN conference.
