[visionlist] Abstract submission deadline extended: Mathematics of Neuroscience and AI, Rome, 28-31st May 2024.

[Ruairidh McLennan Battleday]

We have extended the deadline for abstracts for the 5th International
Convention on the Mathematics of Neuroscience and AI, to be held in Rome
28th-31st May 2024:

New deadline: 8th March, 2024; AOE.

We hope that you come and join us!

Thank you to all the people that have submitted already—the quality has
been fantastic. If you would like to edit your submission, just submit
another response.

In this high-profile convention we examine computational accounts of the
brain and mind from the perspectives of biocomputation, neural theory, and
cognitive science. We then take findings and theory back into the creation
of robust, generalizable, and scalable AI:
