Sept 3-14, 2012 Barcelona, Spain

BCBT's principal aim is to promote a shared systems-level understanding of the functional architecture of the brain and its possible emulation in artificial systems. With respect to FP7 this means that BCBT is catering to the research communities addressed by the  “bio-ict convergence”, Brain Inspired ICT and “cognitive systems-robotics”. BCBT is aiming at making a positive contribution to the development of an active and integrated multi-disciplinary research environment in these areas.

On this site you can find video registrations of the 2011 talks and links to interviews with the speakers. Registered participants also have access to papers and other details.
