Colloquium: de Ruyter van Steveninck

What: Colloquium presented by the SPHS Department and the SPHS PhD Organization
Where: Speech and Hearing Building, Room C141
When: January 26, 4-5 pm

Speaker: Dr. Robert de Ruyter van Steveninck, Professor of Physics

Title of Talk: "Signal, noise and neural information processing:
Lessons from the fly visual system."

Abstract:
The fly visual system is very well suited to study quantitative aspects of sensory signal processing. In this talk I will review experimental data on sensory transduction and neural computation in the fly, within an overall context of processing of signals that are representative for natural conditions.

We hope you will join us for this presentation.
