ERC Synergy Grant for Michael Brecht and colleagues
In "BrainPlay", the interdisciplinary project team, consisting of Michael Brecht, Daphne Bavelier, Robert Gütig and Dietmar Schmitz, is exploring the question about what goes on in the brain during play.
Competence Centers for Machine Learning in Tübingen and Berlin
In October, the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) announced the federal funding for the establishment of competence centres for machine learning. This is to say that research projects on artificial intelligence are pooled at four locations in Germany, including Berlin and Tübingen, two central locations of the Bernstein Network. These competence centres will play an important role in the federal government's declared strategy on artificial intelligence.

Understanding how the brain works - International Bernstein Conference in Berlin
With every thought, every movement, whether conscious or unconscious, networks of neurons in our brain work together. The study of these neural systems is a central component of computational neuroscience, whose largest European conference will take place from September 26 to 28 at Technische Universität Berlin. The workshops and lectures not only deal with individual research results, they also relate to public discourse and questions on artificial intelligence or big data management.
New call: Multilateral Collaboration in Computational Neuroscience: Germany - USA - Israel - France
On August 21, 2018, the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung, BMBF) published the guidelines of the funding scheme "Multilateral Collaborations in Computational Neuroscience: Germany - USA - Israel - France".
