“Learning without a brain”
Living systems at all levels, even single cells, can adapt to unforeseen challenges for which they have not been designed. They have in them complex and plastic networks, such as genetic and biochemical networks. Can we think of them as learning systems, without neurons or brains? What can support such learning, and what are its implications?
Prof. Rosenberg is a senior physician in neuro-oncology, head of the Computational Cancer Biology Lab, and a leader in applying artificial intelligence to personalized medicine in oncology. He also heads the AI in Oncology Unit and the Purple Track for a dual degree in Medicine and Computer Science at the Faculty of Medicine at the Hebrew University. And of course, most importantly – he is a graduate of the program.
For our annual trip, we took a break from the usual routine and headed out for a fun day in nature at Ein Yizrael and HaKibbutzim Stream. We started with a relaxed walk by the spring at Ein Yizrael, soaking in the green views and peaceful vibes. Then we made our way to HaKibbutzim Stream, where we cooled off in the water and enjoyed a refreshing splash through the stream.
It was the perfect mix of chill, laughs, and good company. Thanks to everyone who joined – already looking forward to the next one!
