We are interested in how the brain produces intelligent behavior and how neuroscience research can help inform the development of artificial systems. We develop machine learning systems that mimic human processing of visual and auditory cues and construct algorithms to help us understand the complex computations made by the brain. We also build systems that augment our own ability to process information and data.

Featured Researcher
Mark Harnett
Mark Harnett studies how mammalian neurons process information and perform the complex computations that underlie behavior.
>1 billion
More than one billion bits per second of information is transmitted by the retina to the brain.
~30 ms
The time it takes for neurons downstream in the visual cortex to adjust their responses.
