Lorentz Center symposium "Brain and Organisms, Neuroscience beyond Computation"
by Francesco Battaglia Dec. 21, 2025

Dec. 21, 2025

Dear all, we are still taking registrations for our Lorentz Center Symposium "Brain and Organisms, Neuroscience beyond Computation" to be held in Leiden 16 to 20 March 2026. Since the 1990s, that were designated as the “Decade of the brain” new technologies have generate a wealth of empirical data unimaginable before. Yet that era’s hopes for a new understanding of the brain that would translate into effective treatment for a number of brain disorders seem to be put on hold. The currently slow progress of brain theory, and, relatedly, of clinical innovation has, in our opinion, a key cause in reductionist, and reductive dominant paradigm which looks at “brain machinery” in isolation, without paying much attention to the link between the brain and the physiology of the whole organism, and to the social-ecological environment in which natural brains operate. The symposium will bring together mathematicians, philosophers, computer scientists, and experimental neuroscientists to identify how a broader perspective on brain-organism-environment may help formulating new conceptual tools, and novel experimental paradigms. The sessions will progress from debating to value of current computational and modeling trends, to highly conceptual and theoretical perspective of the biological brain and ending with the discussing how the brain integrates into the organism as a whole, and into a social network in individuals. We hope to formulate new ideas, which will be summarized for example in a special issue of a prominent academic journal. You can see more info, and register at https://www.lorentzcenter.nl/brain-and-organisms-neuroscience-beyond-comput… Please do not hesitate contacting me if you have any questions!

UConn has a vibrant neuroscience community, and there are opportunities for collaboration between departments, institutes, and Universities involved in the project. The primary appointment is in Biomedical Engineering and/or Electrical Engineering. The work will be conducted in collaboration with the Behavioral Neuroscience program in the Psychological Sciences department (Ian Stevenson), the Electrical and Computer Engineering/Biomedical Engineering departments at the University of Connecticut (Monty Escabí), and the Connecticut Institute for Brain and Cognitive Sciences. MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS * A PhD in Neuroscience, Biomedical Engineering, Computational Neuroscience, or a related field is required. * Experience with experimental design, data analysis, and/or modeling. PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS * Previous experience, education, or general proven knowledge in hearing or speech and language sciences. * Interdisciplinary research experience in computational and systems neuroscience with prior research experience in human behavior, animal behavior and/or brain physiology. * A strong analytic background, particularly in modeling neural systems and analyzing large datasets. * Experience with acoustic signal processing, sound recognition, and machine learning. APPOINTMENT TERMS This is a full-time, 12-month position funded through the Misophonia Research Fund on a yearly basis. Salaries follow the post-doctoral scale and are based on experience.
