Welcome to the CNRG

The Computational Neuroscience Research Group (CNRG) is dedicated to developing and applying a unified mathematical framework for modeling large scale neurobiological systems. For more information on our framework, please see the research page.

The CNRG began as a collaboration across two universities, Washington University in St. Louis Medical School and the University of Waterloo. Upon the retirement of Charles H. Anderson, Chris Eliasmith is now the sole Director and located at Waterloo. The CNRG at Waterloo is part of Waterloo's Centre for Theoretical Neuroscience (CTN). For seminars, workshops, and other activities related to theoretical neuroscience, please visit the Centre's webpage.
