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!
