Faculty News

New approach for a biological programming language
Researchers led by Wolfgang Maass and Robert Legenstein (IGI) have succeeded in modelling the emergence and interaction between neuron groups called "assemblies". These are neuron groups in the brain that form the basis for higher cognitive abilities such as thinking, imagining, arguing, planning or speech processing. This could lead to efficient new AI methods.

Vesna Krnjic and Johanna Pirker nominated for Hedy Lamarr Prize 2020
The Hedy Lamarr Prize of the City of Vienna has been awarded annually since 2018 to an Austrian researcher for her "outstanding achievements in the field of information technologies". Krnjic (IST) was nomitaded for her work on interaction between computers and youths, and Pirker (ISDS) was nominated for her work on game theoretical interactive learning systems. Congratulations!
