Workshops

Discover how Vector Symbolic Algebras enable Bayesian optimization that matches state-of-the-art robotics results without cubic scaling in sample count.

We are pivoting the Open Neuromorphic Research (ONR) program from a formal peer-review pipeline to a dynamic, community-highlighted research feed featuring Gold and Silver openness tiers.

We are thrilled to announce the development of 'Zero to Silicon', a summer school series designed to take you from zero hardware background to simulating a digital neuromorphic chip. We need volunteers to make it happen!

Meet the new leadership team elected with a mandate to evolve ONM's structure and drive key initiatives in education and open science.

See how leaky integrators provide scale-space covariance for SNNs, boosting event-based tracking by 42% when initialized with spatio-temporal priors.

Submit your open-source neuromorphic projects for transparent community review and recognition through the ONR Program.

Comparing neuromorphic and conventional ML workflows reveals a massive infrastructure gap—and big opportunity to accelerate the field.

Following a landmark panel, leading projects like BindsNET, Brian, GeNN, and snnTorch unite to form the inaugural Open Neuromorphic Collaboration Network, putting our strategic vision into action.

Why 'open' matters and where we want to take the Open Neuromorphic community
