📷📷USS2020 is a full-day VIRTUAL event aimed at young researchers with a keen interest in work at the intersection of neuroscience and artificial intelligence.

This event will feature a keynote presentation by Dr. Konrad Kording (University of Pennsylvania), as well as invited talks by Dr. Eilif Muller (former member of Element AI and the Blue Brain Project) and Dr. Adrienne Fairhall (University of Washington).

Join us for a day full of inspiring talks and online engaging activities with junior and senior researchers working at the intersection of these two fast-paced and exciting fields, and get the chance to network with them!
