O Title: NeuroAI: A Family History

O Abstract:

Computational neuroscience and AI research have a rich, intertwined history, epitomized by recent and earlier Nobel laureates bridging these two fields. In this seminar, I will trace two such lineages through my own academic family tree, to shed light on how the fields have come together. I will then discuss ongoing efforts in my lab to compare the cognitive and neural mechanisms of decision-making, navigation, and learning under uncertainty between artificial and natural intelligence, to suggest a future direction for the field.
