Think like a brain!
Neuromorphic means brain-inspired; this is a growing field that aims to learn lessons from the efficient processing and computation of biological brains. This group aims to facilitate collaboration between those who study brains, algorithms, and engineering by providing a semi-formal environment to share new research articles and ideas.
