Objectives: Neuroscientists at all scales, fromthe cellular to the cognitive and behavioral, are facing increased computational demands. Join us for an overview of howtoday’s MATLAB can ease these challenges,with specific tools formachine learning, parallel computing, research collaborations, and more.We will alsotake a deeper dive into how MATLAB tools can be used to scale your applications with parallel and distributed computing and totackle problems with Big Data.
