On the computational neuroscience legacy of Valentino Braitenberg - with Ad Aertsen - #43
Friday, 24 July, 2026

The prominent and colorful neuroscientist Valentino Braitenberg was born 100 years ago. He co-founded the Max Planck Institute of Biological Cybernetics in Tübingen in Germany, where he made seminal contributions to neuroanatomy, synthetic psychology, and theories for cerebellar, fly vision and cortical function. He was celebrated at the recent Braitenberg*100 symposium which I attended together with today's guest. Ad Aertsen is an outstanding computational neuroscientist and worked with Braitenberg back in the days.
