HYBRAIN co-organised events
The 87th Unconventional Computing Workshop held in Erice, Sicily, brought together a diverse group of researchers and renowned experts from fields such as computer science, physics, and nanotechnology.
This interdisciplinary gathering served as a platform to explore groundbreaking principles of information processing and to discuss the development of next-generation computing devices. The event featured engaging tutorials from senior experts alongside contributed talks and poster presentations by emerging scientists. HYBRAIN actively contributed to the success of the workshop, which it also co-sponsored as part of its commitment to advancing unconventional computing research.
The project was represented by Wilfred G. van der Wiel, who co-chaired the organising committee, and Harish Bhaskaran, both of whom delivered insightful lectures. Additionally, contributions from HYBRAIN team members, including Ph.D. student Lorenzo Cassola and post-doctoral researchers Shabnam Taheriniya and Anna Ovvyan, enriched the discussions.
The project’s scientific partners showcased their latest research through a poster, highlighting HYBRAIN’s progress and innovations in hybrid electronic-photonic architectures and other neuromorphic computing technologies.
The Brainspiration 2024 conference, held in Groningen, Netherlands, brought together experts from fields such as physics, chemistry, electrical engineering, and computer science to delve into the latest research on brain-inspired concepts, systems, and materials for innovative information processing.
Through its involvement in the conference, including co-sponsorship, HYBRAIN not only gained increased visibility but also fostered insightful disccusion with a focus on intelligent materials, analog in-memory computing, and non-digital computational systems.
