The Unibe interviewed Mihai within its science speed dating series! He gives a broad overview of our research. Take a look following the link (in German).
Mihai was invite to participate in the Forum für Universität und Gesselschaft at the University of Bern! The topice for the Forum was "Menschliche Erkenntnis in der ära Kuntlicher Intelligenz", Human Knowledge in the Era of Artificial Intelligence. Take a look to the Forum report!
The CAIM Embedded Ethics Lab hosted its second series of Ethics Talks entitled "Transparency and Ethics in AI Development" to foster public dialogue into ethical challenges of AI applications in medicine. Watch the full panel discussion by following the link!
The SCALES project in collaboration with Yale University was funded by the joint SNSF-NSF Weave lead agency program. The MINT project titled "SCALES: Scalable accelerated learning in continuous neuronal systems" was awarded a total of $1,178,194. and will last for 3 years. It is co-led by Mihai A. Petrovici (NeuroTMA, Univeryity of Bern) and Rajit Manohar (Yale University). Stay tuned for the results of this project!
More brainlike computers could change AI for the better: that is one of the drives of our research and the main througline for this article, where Mihai was interviewed alongside other experts. Check the full article!
The European Commission has accepted the EBRAINS 2.0 proposal submitted in response to the INFRASERV call, granting €38 million for the further development of services of the EBRAINS research infrastructure. We are proud to be part of this international collaboration.
Mihai is investigating the brain's remarkably efficient learning mechanisms at the Department of Physiology. In this interview with University of Bern's uni-aktuell magazine, he talks about the fascination and progress of modern brain research, but also about the consequences of Switzerland's withdrawal from European research programs.
The brain makes an excellent example of an extremely powerful computer to mimic—and computer scientists and engineers have taken the first steps towards doing so. this article emphasizes our contributions to the field of neuromorphics, and specially our Fast-and-Deep algorithm for efficient learning in neuromorphic systems. However, as Mihai says: “Our work is not only interesting for neuromorphic computing and biologically inspired hardware. It also acknowledges the demand to transfer so-called deep learning approaches to neuroscience and thereby further unveil the secrets of the human brain.”
Mihai was invited to give a talk at the Albert Einstein Center for Fundamental Physics of the University of Bern, highlighting our research and its connection to Physics. The title of his talk was "Computing with physics: Biological and bio-inspired intelligence". We were really happy to share our research with our colleagues!
Listen to this podcast interview of Mihai for the Human Brain Project Podcast. Lots of fruitful ideas were discussed!
Look at this documentary about the Human Brain Project, including guest appearances by NeuroTMA!
Can we make a computer like the human brain? this article in Euronews highlights our research in neuromorphic hardware.
Mihai gave a presentation about our work in CINETic, Romania. The talk was titled "Do androids dream of electric sheep? From biological to artificial intelligence and back again". Phillip K. Dick be proud!
