Computational Neuroscience from my Point of View
Computational neuroscience is a highly interdisciplinary field ranging from mathematics, physics and engineering to biology, medicine and psychology. In this webinar series, experts describe their view on computational neuroscience in theory and application, and share experiences they had with interdisciplinary projects.

This seminar was initiated through the SMARTSTART – Joint Training Program Computational Neuroscience by the Bernstein Network and the Volkswagen Foundation.
Michael Denker
Michael Denker explains, why and how open data and digitization can improve collaboration in neuroscience.
Julijana Gjorgjieva
Julijana Gjorgjieva is group leader at the Max-Planck-Institute for Brain Research in Frankfurt and professor at the technical university in Munich. In this talk she shows how she came from mathematics to computational neuroscience and how theory and application can be combined.
