[Talk] Prof. Wulfram Gerstner on "Synaptic Plasticity to Learning Rules: an approach of theoretical neuroscience"
Hi everyone,
on next Tuesday, we will have a guest tutorial on neuroscience by professor Wulfram Gerstner who is visiting our lab for two weeks. Looking forward to see many of you there!
Who: Wulfram Gerstner When: Nov. 22 (Tuesday) 3PM-5PM Where: AA6214
Title: Synaptic Plasticity to Learning Rules: an approach of theoretical neuroscience
Abstract: In this tutorial I will show what type of constraints experimental data set for biologically plausible learning rules and why inside these constraints we (as theoretical neuroscientists) have a lot of freedom to think about learning rules that are functionally relevant in learning paradigms. Taking examples from unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning, and surprise modulated learning I will point out potential links (and differences) to machine learning approaches.
Bio: Wulfram Gerstner is Director of the Laboratory of Computational Neuroscience LCN at the EPFL. He studied physics at the universities of Tubingen and Munich and received a PhD from the Technical University of Munich. His research in computational neuroscience concentrates on models of spiking neurons and spike-timing dependent plasticity, on the problem of neuronal coding in single neurons and populations, as well as on the role of spatial representation for navigation of rat-like autonomous agents. He currently has a joint appointment at the School of Life Sciences and the School of Computer and Communications Sciences at the EPFL. He teaches courses for Physicists, Computer Scientists, Mathematicians, and Life Scientists.

Dear all,
Unfortunately, Wulfram will not be able to give his presentation today. He is at home with a bad cold and a weak voice.
He apologizes to everybody.
