We were extremely saddened to hear about the departure of Adam Kampff. He influenced our work in countless waysβ€”both directly and indirectlyβ€”and he will remain a source of inspiration for years to come. Thank you for everything.

Arshad Desai and Suckjoon Jun write in their paper about the topic we will discuss in December on our workshop - Why are there neuroscientists? We want to know how the stories we tell ourselves - and others - about our reasons to do science correspond to "real" motives!

Why is behaviour so variable? How can we interpret our chaotic results, and what do they tell us about the function of the brain?

Join us in Buenos Aires on Aug 9th to discuss the complexity, context-dependence, and robustness of behaviour on our Workshop of Ideas!
