PLENA 2024: Pucón Learning and AI Summit

Together with the Universidad de Chile and CENIA in Chile and the McGill University and University of Montreal in Canada, the IAS-6 organizes the Pucón Learning and AI Summit (PLENA) 2024 taking place in Pucón, Chile, on April 8-12 2024.

The Summit will aim to explore the intersection of neuroscience and Artificial Intelligence (AI), with a particular focus on mechanisms of learning. This event will provide a platform for AI and experimental neuroscience researchers to delve into the mechanisms of learning at the cellular, systems, and behavioral levels.

The meeting aims to address three fundamental questions that have been the subject of intense research and theoretical debate:

• What cellular mechanisms enable learning on different timescales?

• How do brain networks modify their connectivity to support adaptive behaviors?

• How do popular AI learning algorithms relate to biological mechanisms of learning at the cellular and systems levels?
