Gabriel Béna

My interests are broad but have lately aligned with the field of neuromorphic engineering. I study the structure-function relationship in neural-networks, understanding how structural modularity relates to functional specialization and compositional knowledge abilities, especially in resource-constrained architectures. I’ve also studied Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs), especially the topic of multimodal integration, and I am currently an active developer of the SNN software stack for SpiNNaker2. Finally, I am fascinated by self-organising systems and have recently been trying to understand how continuous neural cellular automata can be harnessed as a universal computational medium.
