Overview
Over the last decade, a new wave of excitement has emerged with the rise of deep learning. Many expectations have accompanied these descendants of the early multilayer neural networks developed in the 1990s because of their remarkable ability to find solutions to complex problems beyond human intuition. This is transforming the scientific landscape, from how we design experiments, to what it means to model, predict and build. At the same time, there has been a surge in research exploring the potential deep connections between artificial neural networks and evolved ones, and between neural circuits and other molecular, cellular and ecological networks. New advances from evolutionary robotics to genetics, swarm cognition to synthetic biology and computational neuroscience are helping to reformulate critical questions in biology. This meeting will bring together scholars from different disciplines to discuss progress and new ideas at the intersection of natural, artificial and synthetic networks.
