Brain & Cognitive Society

an ongoing thread of @bcs_IITK blog posts: we have started a series of blogs related to brain sciences and other interdisciplinary sister areas like #AI, #CompCogSci, #ML, #cogPsych, #cogsci, #neuroscience, #neurotech and more. bcs-iitk.github.io/blog-post/

The Academics and Career Council, IIT Kanpur brings to you Students' Research Convention 2022. We are proud to announce the theme for SRC'22: Sustainable Energy and Climate Change #research #iitk #thatsiitk #sustainability #students #energy #climatechange

This will be a highly useful introductory workshop and we suggest you join in if you are interested in/want to explore brain sciences and other interdisciplinary sister areas like #AI, #CompCogSci, #ML, #cogPsych, #cogsci, #neuroscience, #neurotech and more.

We will be using python for the workshop assignments, if you aren’t comfortable with it, we suggest you go through the basic python tutorial here: github.com/bcs-iitk/BCS_w… Join our discord: discord.gg/JedrMJEpMU All announcements related to the workshop would be made here

Greetings! Brain and Cognitive Society is glad to bring for you a workshop on Introduction and Topics in Brain Sciences. Google form for registration: forms.gle/FvpkgjN1CzpjtU…

Abstract: The ability to improve in speed and accuracy as a result of repeating some task is an important hallmark of intelligent biological systems. Here, the authors use a Spiking Neural Network(SNN) model to simulate the development of math skills.

In a series of engrossing blogs in the field of Cognitive Sciences, we bring to you: Blog Post #1 written by @zapmonkey02 Paper Review: Improving With Practice - A Neural Network Model for Mathematical Development.
