iCoNeT PhD Conference – From Coding Strategies to Emergent Functional Properties in Recurrent Networks

In December 2011 the PhD-students of the Bernstein Center Freiburg and it's PhD-Program "iCoNeT" organized their first PhD-Conference. The aim of this conference was provide the PhD-students a forum to meet with experts in neuroscience, to discuss freely and to expand their scientific network. Overall, the conference was a great success, both for our PhD-students and the international guests.
