2026.11.10Prof. YU Xiongjie:"Beyond Békésy: Advancing Auditory Research with New Concepts in Temporal Integration"How does the brain combine successive sounds into a coherent auditory percept while preserving their temporal structure? This question is central to hearing, from pitch perception to recognizing complex sound patterns. In this talk, I will present our work on aud... -
2026.08.03Prof. Kristine Krug: "Cortical architectures for perception and action in the 3D world"Perceptual decisions are shaped in an intricate network of cortico-cortical and cortico-subcortical circuits. For decisions about 3D-motion stimuli, this network involves the columnar architecture of extrastriate visual cortical area V5/MT and its input from earl... -
2026.07.24Prof. LIU Feng: "Unsolved Problems in MRI Engineering"In the context of MRI research at the University of Queensland, this talk will review the major technical challenges in MRI engineering—covering superconducting magnets, gradient and RF systems, and imaging methods—while highlighting several unsolved problems t... -
2026.07.24Ewald WEBER: "Challenges and solutions in pre-clinical RF-coil Engineering"Ultra-high field MRI systems for small animals have seen rapid development over recent years in a continuous effort to enhance SNR and spectral resolution of MRI images. To circumvent the associated high-field B1 inhomogeneity problem, methods such as RF shimming... -
2026.06.18Sze Chai Kwok: "Intracranial Population Dynamics Supporting Episodic Memory"How does the brain transform continuous experience into temporally organized episodic memories? In this talk, I will present a series of studies from our group combining intracranial electrophysiological recordings, naturalistic behavioral paradigms, and populati... -
2026.06.15Prof. Athanasios Fokas: "Can AI reach the human thought?"The transformative achievements of deep learning have led several scholars to raise the question of whether artificial intelligence (AI) can reach and then surpass the level of human thought. Here, after addressing methodological problems regarding the possible a...
