🧠 Exploring the convergence of neuroscience with mathematical, computational, and experimental approaches This week at NITMB, we hosted the Data-driven modeling, simulation and inference for neurobiological problems workshop! Thank you for joining us! We hope to see you at NITMB again soon!

At tomorrow’s NITMB Seminar, Lai-Sang Young, the Henry & Lucy Moses Professor of Science and Professor of Mathematics at New York University, uses recent modeling work to illustrate the interaction between mathematics and biology in computational neuroscience Join us tomorrow at 10am! 🔗 👇️
