Senior Manager, Center Administration, Center for Computational Neuroscience
3 months ago
ORGANIZATIONAL OVERVIEW
The mission of the , a division of the Simons Foundation, is to advance scientific research through computational methods, including data analysis, theory, modeling and simulation. It currently houses five science centers focused on computational astrophysics (CCA), computational biology (CCB), computational mathematics (CCM), computational neuroscience (CCN), and computational quantum physics (CCQ), and a scientific computing core, as well as the Initiative for Computational Catalysis.
The Center for Computational Neuroscience’s (CCN’s) mission is to develop models, principles and conceptual frameworks that deepen our knowledge of brain function — both in health and in disease. CCN takes a “systems" neuroscience approach, building models that are motivated by fundamental principles, that are constrained by properties of neural circuits and responses, and that provide insights into perception, cognition and behavior. This cross-disciplinary approach not only leads to the design of new model-driven scientific experiments, but also encapsulates current functional descriptions of the brain that can spur the development of new engineered computational systems, especially in the realm of machine learning.
