Hi Jeffrey,
Yes, it was great chatting about all the ways neuroengineering is
going to go in the coming years, revealing both fundamental
mechanistic brain maps, and providing the control knobs for fixing
brain disorders and understanding complex phenomena like
consciousness. Would be great to talk about how then to make
mathematical sense of these maps and control knobs... arguably the
big stumbling block to date is the lack of good data, but that's about
to change, thanks to our current and future efforts! Then we will
have many things that require deep mathematics to understand!
