The International Conference on Neuromorphic Computing and Engineering 2026 just ended. For almost a week, over 500 Neuroscientists, Computer Scientists, Microelectronics Engineers and Material Scientists in Aachen to discus the future of #Neuromorphiccomputing. Come again in 2028!
Hosted Erika Covi (TU Munich) at the AMO / RWTH Aachen cleanroom after #ICNCE2026. Discussed device-circuit co-design for neuromorphic computing. icnce-2026.de #NeuromorphicComputing #2DMaterials @amogmbh.bsky.social @rwth.bsky.social
Catarina dos Santos-Wintz, MdB, gave an opening address at #ICNCE2026 about the strong Aachen research ecosystem in semiconductors. Her message: innovation only works when science, entrepreneurship, and policy create an innovation climate.I couldn’t agree more! @catarinadossantos.bsky.social
