Mysteries#

Welcome to the final day of the NeuroAI course! You’ve covered a wide range of topics and we hope you have enjoyed the content we’ve put together and that you’ve put your mind to work in absorbing some of the low-level as well as the high-level details of some of this - at time - tricky and mathematically detailed content. As you can tell from the title of this final day, we’re switching to a different type of educational content. We’re leaving you with some of the open mysteries in the field and talking you through some of the on-going work aimed at finding solutions.

We hope with the tools we’ve equipped you with, you might be inspired by some of the active mysteries and perhaps your name(s) will be on papers in the future that aim to provide some solid work that goes further to help understand the underlying mechanisms behind some of these super interesting ideas.

Prerequisites#

For this day, the prerequisites are your sincere inner-child curiosity, flexibility in collaborative discussion, and willingness to discover intriguing ideas! Be prepared to actively participate in the activities as the quality of the insights you will get from this day crucially depends on the joint interaction.
