Abstract
Dr. Kepecs: I’m very interested in how brains make decisions. I’m interested in the computational mechanism: what makes brains able to do feats that computers, even in the age of amazing AI [artificial intelligence], cannot do? On the other hand, I’m also very interested in the cellular mechanisms at the level of neural circuits: Where’s the “magic” in brains? What about them, in terms of the biological machinery, makes them able to do these things?
