''Neuroscientists are rapidly converging on answers to once seemingly intractable questions: How do we learn?  How are memories stored?  How is information represented across ensembles of cells?  How do neural circuits compute?  This talk will survey recent progress in experimental and theoretical brain science, including contributions from local researchers, and present some novel hypotheses as to how biological information processing differs fundamentally from conventional digital computation.''

Dr. Kenyon will be introduced by Dr. Ilya Nemenman of Los Alamos National Laboratory.
