Thanks to all who joined us for the Soft Launch of the new #Artscience Lab at The MARCS Institute. It featured update from EDEN-Parramatta project facilitator, Julie-Anne Long, and performance by Ryuichi Fujimura & Cloé Fournier. Stay tuned for more info. #musicscience #collab #dance
❤️ Thank you to all who joined our #AgeLab Workshop on Healthy #Ageing & #BrainHealth with @CityofParramatta for #NSWSeniorsFestival ! A wonderful experience exploring the topic of ageing together. Here's to sharing science & exchanging life stories! 🙌
There's more to building a #neuromorphic #supercomputer than just the machine itself.
For DeepSouth, we need to consider location, power, temperature, and security.
