Day 10 - BMIs with neuromorphic substrates: Francesca Santoro, Elisa Donati, Jean-Jacques Slotine
Approaching Capocaccia by speedboats 🌞 On Day 10, we explored how neuromorphic systems can interface with the brain and help us understand learning itself. Francesca Santoro showed how organic electronics can mimic synaptic behavior and physically integrate with biological nets, opening the door to biocompatible and future intelligent implants. Elisa Donati demonstrated that neuromorphic twins, real-time spiking replicas of brain areas, can help restore lost neural communication and even replicate human sensory adaptation. Jean-Jacques Slotine connected neuroscience and deep learning through contraction theory, revealing how high-dimensional systems like the brain or artificial deep neural nets can achieve stability, generalization, and attention through their geometry. Francesca Santoro: Engineering Organic Neuromorphics What if the materials we use to interface with the brain were as soft, adaptive, and chemically dynamic as the brain itself? Francesc...
