<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Dear colleagues,</div><div><br></div><div>We are excited to
announce that registration and abstract submission are now open for the
upcoming Champalimaud Research Symposium: <b>Neuro-Cybernetics at Scale</b>, organized jointly by Memming Park (Champalimaud), Guillaume Hennequin (Cambridge), and Shreya Saxena (Yale).<br><br>We
will explore how behavior emerges through complex feedback loops across
neural circuits, bodies, and varied environments. The symposium draws
inspiration from the recent advances in AI and machine learning, where
scaling has unlocked unprecedented performance. We believe neuroscience
may be approaching a similar inflection point (e.g. foundation model for
neuroscience). By convening researchers in experimental neuroscience,
robotics, machine learning, control theory, and theoretical
neuroscience, we aim to explore how ideas of scaling and feedback can
shape the future of systems neuroscience.<br><br>๐ Dates: <b>15-17th October 2025</b><br>๐ Location: Champalimaud Centre for the Unknown, Lisbon, Portugal<br>๐ Keynote Speakers: Eva Dyer, Auke Ijspeert, Misha Ahrens, Adrienne Fairhall<br>๐
