A select set of invited speakers will present their work, in addition to contributed posters. The aim is to highlight current developments and state-of-the-art, and also limitations, targeting both computational and theoretical neuroscientists working on the edge of AI, and vice versa. </span></div><div style="display: block;"><div style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br></span></div><div style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Speakers:</span></div><div style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Guillaume Bellec (TU Wien)</span></div><div style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;"><font face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 14.666667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Johanni Brea (EPFL)</span></font></div><div style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;"><font face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 14.666667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Bojian Yin (TU Eindhoven)</span></font></div><div style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;"><font face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 14.666667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Raoul-Martin Memmesheimer (U.
