7:00 pmto9:00 pm

Writers have had control of their pens for centuries, but rarely did they control their publishers. If they were lucky enough to have a publisher.
 
Now, thanks to the magic of the Digital Age, authors can control both their pens and their publishers, and that control comes with minimal investment. As in “close to free.”

Cracking the Neural Code: Discovering the Language of the Brain

July 21, 2009
7:00 pmto9:00 pm

Neuroscientists are rapidly converging on answers to once seemingly intractable questions: How do we learn? How are memories stored? How is information represented across ensembles of cells? How do neural circuits compute? This talk by LANL researcher Garrett Kenyon will survey recent progress in experimental and theoretical brain science, including contributions from local researchers, and present some novel hypotheses as to how biological information processing differs fundamentally from conventional digital computation. more…

q-bios Lecture: Wiring The Brain

July 21, 2009
7:00 pmto9:00 pm

Vision is one of the many mysteries of life. For us to be able to see, specific cells in our retinas must be connected in a regular fashion to specific cells in our brains, creating a visualization map. How does the brain achieve it? How does it reproducibly wire its billions of nerve cells together during embryonic development? Dr. Greg E. Lemke, professor of molecular biology at the Salk Institute, offers the latest lecture in the q-bios series, describes how the visual system uses variable abundances of a set of receptors – called EPH proteins – to connect the eye to the brain in a regular, reproducible fashion that allows us to see. more…
