Dear all, NEST is a powerful tool to simulate biologically derived spiking Neural Networks. Besides the ever improving model details, learning paradigms and computational complexity, there are two complementary components necessary in order to simulate a (full) biologically plausible mammalian brain: Running simulations at large scale and embodying the brain simulation in a (virtual) body. In frame of the Fenix Infrastructure Webinar series I am going to present "Embodied large scale spiking neural networks in the Neurorobotics Platform" with a focus on the deployment on High Performance Computing Infrastructure next week Thursday. The presentation showcases the joint work of developers from NEST and the Neurorobotics Platform, the CSCS Swiss National Supercomputing centre and researchers in the RoboBrain project.
