Solving the Problem of Neural Population Coding at Manchester University
12 Nov 2015Watch this video to hear Dr Abhinav Singh, Research Associate in Systems Neurophysiology Lab at University of Manchester explain the problem of population coding. When information about the external world is received via sensory signalling, it is transformed by our brain. Exactly how this transformation happens is unknown. Dr Singh is looking into how spikes in the pre-frontal cortex encode information about rule learning, and also discusses the fantastic viewpoint virtual reality offers in data analysis.
