BFBC 2027 - The 15th RIEC Int. Symp. on Brain Functions and Brain Computer2027

The 15th RIEC International Symposium on Brain Functions and Brain Computer

DATE:February 22-23, 2027

VENUE:Research Institute of Electrical Communication, Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan

BFBC


Scope

Artificial intelligence has advanced rapidly by incorporating neuroscientific insights into how the brain processes information. Yet the principles underlying brain function are not fully understood. Further elucidating these principles is of fundamental importance for neuroscience and may open new directions in artificial intelligence and computing technologies.
The objective of this symposium is to provide an opportunity to present the latest research on brain computing and brain function, and to discuss key issues in these fields.

Topics of interest include:

  • Artificial neural networks and brain-inspired AI
  • Biocomputing and cultured neuronal networks
  • Brain computer
  • Brain-computer interfaces
  • Brain imaging and neural recording
  • Embodied intelligence and robotics
  • Experimental and computational neuroscience
  • Learning and plasticity
  • Neural coding, dynamics, and data analysis
  • Neuromorphic devices, circuits, and systems
  • Reservoir computing
