Seminars will include internal BU speakers and external speakers associated with the NSF EAGER grant that funds a new Initiative for Physics and Mathematics of Neural Systems (IPMNS) at Boston University, facilitating collaborations between physicists, mathematicians, engineers, and neuroscientists.<\/p>\n<p>We anticipate a broad audience. Speakers will start with an introduction to their research area and conclude by discussing important current questions for future work. Talks will be 45 minutes, allowing time so the community can broadly discuss not only what has been done, but also what innovations are needed for future advances. Please send an email to eriay@bu.edu if you want to be added to the email list for notices about these talks.<\/p>\n<p>Talks will be at one of two locations on the Charles River Campus at Boston University (in adjacent buildings):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Room B01 at 24 Cummington Street, with lunch afterward in Room 103, just upstairs<\/li>\n<li>or Room 109 at 2 Cummington Street, with lunch served in the same room at start of talk.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All talks are on Wednesday at 12 noon.
