The event, organized in collaboration with Embassy of Italy and SWETALY, is free of charge and anyone affiliated to an Academic, Clinical, Industrial or similar environment is welcome to join.

The aim of this symposium is to unite top Swedish and Italian researchers in neuroscience and AI, encouraging a dynamic exchange of pioneering ideas and promoting a deep interdisciplinary collaboration.

Our goal is to explore innovative intersections between neural mechanisms and AI, striving to unlock new applications in cognitive function and healthcare. Together, we will delve into real-world applications and the ethical issues that surround these cutting-edge fields. Through this event, we seek to forge lasting partnerships and set the stage for groundbreaking joint research initiatives that could redefine our understanding of intelligence, both human and artificial.
