Dear Computational Neuroscientists,
Please share the following event information with anyone who may be interested.
We at the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience (BCCN) Berlin will hold a "Digital Info Day" to discuss our International Master & Doctoral Programs in Computational Neuroscience on Wednesday, January 27th, at 3pm (CET).
The event will consist of talks by:
Prof. Dr. Klaus Obermayer (head of the programs)
Lisa Velenosi (teaching coordinator)
Current master and doctoral students
Attendees will also have the opportunity to meet & discuss with current students and ask any questions or concerns that they may have.
See our website for a more detailed schedule and registration link.
Best regards and happy new year,
Lisa Velenosi

Combinatorial approach to spreading processes on networks
Dario Mazzilli, Filippo Radicchi
https://arxiv.org/pdf/2101.02176
Stochastic spreading models defined on complex network topologies are used to mimic the diffusion of diseases, information, and opinions in real-world systems. Existing theoretical approaches to the characterization of the models in terms of microscopic configurations rely on some approximation of independence among dynamical variables, thus introducing a systematic bias in the prediction of the ground-truth dynamics. Here, we develop a combinatorial framework based on the approximation that spreading may occur only along the shortest paths connecting pairs of nodes. The approximation overestimates dynamical correlations among node states and leads to biased predictions. Systematic bias is, however, pointing in the opposite direction of existing approximations. We show that the combination of the two biased approaches generates predictions of the ground-truth dynamics that are more accurate than the ones given by the two approximations if used in isolation. We further take advantage of the combinatorial approximation to characterize theoretical properties of some inference problems, and show that the reconstruction of microscopic configurations is very sensitive to both the place where and the time when partial knowledge of the system is acquired.

Exciting news! We are announcing a new undergraduate program in Quantitative Social Sciences at @dnds_ceu.
https://t.co/O5TOfjQ0ra
Our program combines rigorous ("hard sciences"-level) mathematics, statistics, and programming with the pillars of the social sciences.
The multidisciplinary program is designed to form a next generation of researchers able to make sense of the huge volume of data on human behavior, while based fully on the epistemological foundations of the social sciences (Sociology, Economics, Environ. Sci., Pol. Sci.)
We will be offering a limited number of 🚨full scholarships🚨, covering full tuition waiver and housing aid.
The program is hosted by @dnds_ceu at @ceu, in Vienna 🇦🇹, often ranked the most livable city in the world.
Deadlines: Feb. 1, Apr. 12, 2021

“All the observational studies show strong vitamin D effects on infectiousness, morbidity and mortality,” Davis says. [..] All of this evidence together, he says, makes it “very, very plain that vitamin D has a material effect”. https://t.co/oVKoGpF7sD

Does vitamin D combat Covid?
It’s cheap, widely available and might help us fend off the virus. So should we all be dosing up on the sunshine nutrient?
