About the symposium
This symposium brings together neuroscientists and AI researchers around shared scientific questions. The goal is to foster a genuine, ongoing dialogue between the two communities, identifying problems where the fields can meaningfully inform each other. Each edition will focus on a different theme; this inaugural event takes efficiency as its organising principle, exploring what the brain’s remarkable ability to do more with less can teach us about building smarter, leaner AI systems.
