ADOPD has organized a workshop on algorithms for neuromorphic computing (6th-8th of September, 2022; https://neal2022.tetzlab.com/), discussing the interdependence between hardware and algorithms - also from the point of view of applications such as robotics. Furthermore, new results and insights from the scientific fields of machine learning and computational neuroscience, including dendritic computation, have been presented and discussed to stimulate the exchange of algorithmic principles that could advance neuromorphic computing. Taken together, this workshop brought together researchers from different scientific disciplines, each providing novel and interesting insights on this spectrum of perspectives on neuromorphic algorithms. We think that this workshop was a successful starting point to facilitate the coming together of a community focused specifically on these questions of neuromorphic algorithms at the interdisciplinary interface.

A 2days-internal workshop with the title Facilitating neuromorphic computing: Are dendrites the next step forward? – Fundamentals and Hardware Implementation was organized by the project partners and held at IFISC, Mallorca, March 14th and 15th, 2024. The audience included interested students and scientific staff of the University of that Balearic Islands and the Spanish National Research Council.
