SUMMARY:SmallTalks "Brain-inspired neuromorphic computing using two dimensional materials"
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to a seminar in the series SmallTalks [about Nanoscience] arranged by Nano​ Area of Advance. \nSpeaker: Sameer Kumar Mallik\, Postdoc\, Quantum Device Physics\, Microtechnology and Nanoscience \nCoffee will be served before the start of the seminar. Students are welcome to participate! \nAbstract: Neuromorphic computing is a cutting-edge approach to designing computer systems inspired by the structure and functioning of the human brain. Unlike conventional computers\, which rely on von Neumann processing techniques\, neuromorphic systems use artificial neurons and synapses to mimic human cognition abilities such as pattern recognition\, sensory processing\, and decision-making more efficiently. Two-dimensional (2D) materials\, such as graphene\, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs)\, and hexagonal boron nitride\, have emerged as promising candidates for advancing neuromorphic systems. These materials exhibit unique electrical\, optical\, and mechanical properties\, including atomic thinness\, tunable bandgaps\, high carrier mobility\, and scalability\, which make them ideal for constructing energy-efficient\, high-performance synaptic and neuronal components. This presentation explores how 2D materials could revolutionize technologies like artificial intelligence\, smart devices\, and low-power electronics for a more sustainable and connected future.

SUMMARY:Seminar by Francky Catthoor: Where digital becomes almost-neural: variability phenomena at the extreme miniaturization limit of 'classical' microchips
DESCRIPTION:Francky Catthoor\nHe is an expert with a life-long research record on (digital) microchip design\, and he has also collaborated with neuromorphic computing researchers. In this special seminar\, he will give an informal introduction to the challenges of extreme miniaturization\, after which we will enjoy an open discussion round. It is not unlikely that we can learn a lot for our CogniGron research! \nSeminar title\nWhere digital becomes almost-neural: variability phenomena at the\nextreme miniaturization limit of ‘classical’ microchips. \nSeminar abstract\nWhen transistor sizes are pushed to the physical limits of\nminiaturization\, effects that are known from brains and analogue\nneuromorphic substrates appear and have to be dealt with. These\nphenomena include stochasticity\, drifting dynamics\, device mismatch\,\nimportance of signal travel delays and multi-timescale synchronization\,\nageing. In the world of ‘classical’ digital microchip engineering\, these\neffects are recognized and dealt with by architectural and\ncontrol-theoretic measures.

SUMMARY:Winter School "Ethics of Neuroscience and AI" 2025
DESCRIPTION:The 14th Winter School “Ethics of Neuroscience and AI” is taking place on Feb 24 – Feb 28\, 2025. It is organized by the BCCN Berlin/ICCN\, the Berlin School of Mind and Brain\, and the Excellence Cluster “Science of Intelligence”. The event is tailored for MSc and PhD students\, but covers a range of topics of potential interest to other researchers\, reflecting on the ethical and societal consequences of modern neuroscience. \n\nTheoretical foundations\, as well as practical and ethical aspects are addressed. Participants will benefit from a combination of lectures with group work and discussions\, where they will put the learned content into practice.
