Dear Members and Colleagues,
|
|
|
|
November is abuzz with activity.
|
Our annual SFB1315 retreat in Schorfheide Nov 6-7 takes place during Berlin Science Week (Nov 1-10), and Berlin Brains on Nov 7 (left). Shortly after, the HU will host its annual METIS talk with Kathrin Zippel (FU Berlin) focusing on diversity and internationalization (Nov 9 online). Then, the SFB's monthly lecture will be held on Nov 21 with Aneta Koseska (MPINB). At the end of the month, AG Mikhaylova will give the final Berlin Brains talk of 2023 at the Zeiss-Großplanetarium (Nov 30). See you there!

Natural computations: from single cells to neuronal networks
|
November 21, 2023 | 4 pm | BCCN Lecture Hall Philippstraße 13 Haus 6, 10115 Berlin + ZOOM Meeting-ID: 775 491 0236
|
|
A fundamental characteristic of living systems is sensing and integrating multi-dimensional sensory signals with memory in order to generate complex self-organized behaviors in continuously changing environments. Using computations on the level of signaling networks in single cells, we have identified that non-neuronal cells utilize dynamical ghost states as a memory-generating mechanism in order to integrate information from time-varying signals, and verified experimentally that ghost states are an emergent feature of cell-surface receptor networks organized at criticality.

METIS lecture 2023: Diversity and Internationalisation in German Academia: Connecting the dots?
|
November 9, 2023 | 2-4 pm | Online via Zoom
|
|
|
|
For the past decades, German universities and research institutions have been more successful in recruiting international talent both at the student and researcher levels. However, does a more internationally open academia create greater equity, and if it does, for whom? Prof. Kathrin Zippel argues that a focus on internationalization might recreate inequities rather than ameliorate them {...}

Die Ampel für’s Gehirn – Warum Nervenzellen Verkehrsregeln brauchen
|
Prof. Dr. Marina Mikhaylova and Nathalie Hertrich take us into the world of optobiology and optogenetics. They explain how light is used as a tool to understand the transport of neuronal proteins and perhaps even to create detours so that cellular traffic rolls again.
