I'm in Groningen in the Netherlands for Brainspiration 2024.  This will be my last international conference before I retire, and it looks like it will be very interesting.  However, I have some free time today before the event starts, so I'm off for a bit of an explore.

that's the conference venue: not far to walk!

A collegue and I have spent the day visiting CogniGron, the Groningen Cognitive Systems and Materials Center.  We have been talking about our work on evaluating substrates for Reservoir Computing, and hearing about their work in neuromorphic computing, AI, dynamical systems, memristors, and more.  A very impressive team, and lots of fascinating work!
