CAMP 2019 Day 4: Students learned about neural encoding from Prof. Arvind Kumar. Prof. Balaji Jayaprakash gave a lecture on memory formation and consolidation in the brain. CAMPsters also began working on their projects for Module 1. Simons Foundation Department of Biotechnology National Centre for Biological Sciences #CAMP2019

Prof. Upinder Bhalla Bhalla Lab from NCBS in Bangalore National Centre for Biological Sciences is fascinated by complexity of brain memory and plasticity. During #EMBLPhdSymposium he will present novel developments from his group in the field of computational neuroscience. (3/n)

CAMP 2019 Day 5: Prof. Arvind taught about reinforcement learning. Lecture on Neuroanatomy by Dr. N. K. Subhedar. We celebrated Dr. Subhedar's birth day. Students worked till late in the night on their projects for module 1. #CAMP2019 #DAY5 Simons Foundation Department of Biotechnology National Centre for Biological Sciences

Day 6: Neelam, Rumani, Aamrapali, Shakkarberi! Dasheri, Totapuri, Mallika, Malgova, Sindura! Amidst project presentations and an enthusiastic discussion on "Reductionism vs Holism", delicious mangoes found their way!
