Join the Allen Institute and Circuit Neuroscience Basel for the Lake Conference in Seattle, Washington this September! This small conference will bring together researchers for engaging presentations and discussions of cutting-edge research and time for networking.
The 3.5 day conference will focus on neural coding and dynamics at the brain-wide level, their implementation in evolved neural circuits, and the impact of theory and machine learning in understanding the brain.

Lake Conferences are a series of four bi-annual conferences designed to provide a stimulating forum for discussion of key emerging areas of neuroscience.
The conferences are medium-sized, with 100-150 participants, to allow for lively participation and conversation among attendees.
Two conferences will take place in 2025:
The scientific program will include 33 talks by invited speakers, organizer-selected short talks from participants, and two poster sessions. The study of neural coding and dynamics has recently been turbocharged by advances in experimental methods and a revolution in computing and modeling. It is now becoming possible to test long-standing theoretical models of how the dynamic interactions of populations of neurons process information and produce intelligent behavior.
The conference will bring together leaders in the field with early-career researchers for a highly interactive meeting.
