Episode 9: Interview with a Neuroscientist - Konrad Kording Part 2
02/23/19 • 26 min
Dr. Konrad Kording is a professor at University of Pennsylvania, known for his contributions to the fields of motor control, neural data methods, and computational neuroscience. He runs the Kording Lab, or K-Lab, which focused on computational neuroscience early on and now focuses on causality in data science applications. His lab has made an impact across many fields over time, including Bayesian brains, causal effects in human behavior, and uncertainty in the brain.
In this episode, Matt Taylor interviews Dr. Kording over Skype about motor representations in the brain, intentionality, time-warping in neurons, and causality. A video of this episode is available on the HTM School YouTube channel.

Numenta On Intelligence - Episode 9: Interview with a Neuroscientist - Konrad Kording Part 2
Transcript
Welcome back to the Numenta on intelligence podcast. This is Numenta community manager, Matt Taylor. Last month, we released part one of an interview with Dr. Konrad Kording who runs the K-lab and UPenn, where we talked about uncertainty in the brain. Coming up is a continuation of that conversation, which will also be available as a video on the HTM School Youtube channel.
