ComAI Lecture: “Between Power and Nature: Provocative reflections for an Eco-Political Economy of AI” (Prof. Dr. Benedetta Brevini)
Abstract: Despite the growing concern over the environmental harms of ICT systems (Ferreboeuf, 2019) Artificial Intelligence (AI) gets principally heralded as the key technology to solve contemporary challenges, including the Climate crisis, which is one of the goals of sustainable development (Saetra, 2022). This AI hype frequently overlooks the significant environmental impacts stemming from the […]

Unravelling brain Networks: How correlations between brain regions can help us understand brain (dys)function (Dr. Jana Schill)
Brain function relies on a complex interplay of different brain regions. This interplay is known to change during healthy aging, and it can be disrupted in neurological diseases such as dystonia and Parkinson’s disease. In my talk I will present how viewing brain regions as nodes of a graph allows us to employ methods from […]
„Clickety-clack“: a non-equilibrium model of cortical activity performs perceptual inference (Prof. Dr. Jochen Braun)
How does the cortex of humans and primates interpret unstable and ambiguous sensory input in terms of lifelong prior experience? Current theories („free energy principle“, „predictive coding“) are based on equilibrium physics and posit reciprocal interactions between cortical levels („top-down“ and „bottom-up“) to compare sensory input with prior experience and minimise discrepancies. I propose a […]
Plastic electronic brain interfaces: organic semiconductors for optogenetics and fluorescence imaging (Dr. Caroline Murawski)
Neurological disorders are becoming increasingly common in our aging society. In order to improve our understanding of the brain and find therapy and treatment, methods are required to precisely control and monitor neuronal signals. Optogenetics and fluorescence imaging use light for stimulation and recording, respectively. This enables unprecedented spatial and temporal control over neuronal activity […]
Die tiefe Hirnstimulation: State of the Art und Entwicklungen (Prof. Dr. Joachim Krauss)
Prof. Dr. Joachim Krauss Die Tiefe Hirnstimulation ist mittlerweile ein etabliertes therapeutisches Verfahren, welches einen festen Platz gefunden hat bei der Behandlung von Bewegungsstörungen wie der Parkinson Erkrankung, dem essentiellen Tremor und verschiedenen Formen der Dystonie. Ferner wird die Methode angewendet bei psychiatrischen Erkrankungen wie der Zwangsstörung, neuropathischen Schmerzsyndromen und bestimmten Epilepsie-Formen. Weitere Indikationen sind […]
