We are requesting proposals for workshops and tutorials at CNS*2023 from the international community of computational neuroscientists.
ALT The 32nd Annual Computational Neuroscience Meeting, CNS*2023, will be held in Leipzig, Germany, 15-19 July 2023. Proposals from all levels of faculty as well as advanced postdoctoral fellows are welcome. Tutorials are to be held on the first day and workshops on the last two days of the CNS*2023 Meeting. This is an excellent opportunity to reach international audience of computational neuroscience researchers participating in this meeting. Please see the links below for detailed information. Questions regarding workshops and tutorials should be addressed to workshops@cnsorg.org or tutorials@cnsorg.org as appropriate. We are looking forward to your submissions. CALL FOR WORKSHOPS: https://www.cnsorg.org/cns-2023-call-for-workshops Priority Deadline for proposals: April 15 Srikanth Ramaswamy, Workshops Chair for CNS*2023 CALL FOR TUTORIALS: https://ocns.memberclicks.net/cns-2023-call-for-tutorials Deadline for proposals: April 22 Maurizio De Pitta, Tutorials Chair for CNS*2023

Digital foot could revolutionise bionic limbs and other assistive technologies. Great to see our work with @ShefTouch @ScienceShef on their computational model, FootSim, featured in @TheEngineerUK theengineer.co.uk/content/ne…

Our latest work was featured in the Engineer!
“The model we’ve developed here at Sheffield now enables us to replicate the signals that allow the nervous system to walk and maintain balance in unprecedented detail,” Dr Siqueira said.

"Complexity of spatiotemporal plantar pressure patterns during everyday behaviours" now on @biorxivpreprint biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
We use our feet during #gait/#balance, but what the #feet experience is not that simple! 1/n

New preprint from the lab! 👇
5 May 2022
PREPRINT ALERT🚨 @miguel_casal and I looked at the encoding strategies of tactile afferents at population level: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
We found that information is spread across afferent classes, and combining information from multiple classes improves information encoding 1/4

If you're interested in the sort of research that I'm interested in (e.g. computational/theory work in SNNs or the auditory system), please do consider submitting your work to @eLife! I've been an editor there now for a year and I'm not seeing a lot of papers in these areas.

Very proud to find out that I passed my PhD in Cybernetics degree @UniofReading under the mentorship of Professor @NasutoSlawek 🎉
And I'm loving the post-doc at the @ShefTouch PhD too! Bring on the next challenge! 😁

Really pleased with my talk at the @neuromatch conference yesterday. We talked about our work here at the @ShefTouch modelling the tactile afferents of the foot sole and its implications to the development of prosthetics.
