Neuromorphic embodied intelligence is an emerging field that combines neuroscience and robotics to create systems that can perceive, learn, and adapt through continuous interaction with their environments instead of utilizing cloud-based data. This technology aims to transform healthcare, security, and next-generation AI applications.
We are pleased to invite you to Neuromorphic Embodied Intelligence: From Brain-Inspired Computing to Adaptive Intelligent Systems, featuring researchers who will present their research and answer questions:
Professor Gert Cauwenberghs
Professor of Bioengineering, University of California San Diego
Professor Sizhen Bian
Professor, Northwestern Polytechnical University, China
Jointly organized by the Journal of Frontiers of Computer Science, iGroup Asia Pacific, and Newswise, this webinar will bring together leading experts to explore how advances in neuromorphic computing, spiking neural networks, bio-inspired sensing, and embodied intelligence are shaping the future of intelligent systems.

Discover the benefits of single-port robotic mitral valve repair and how this innovative approach is redefining minimally invasive cardiac surgery. Compared with traditional multi-port robotic techniques, the single-port approach uses one incision instead of multiple access sites, reducing surgical trauma, bleeding risk, scarring, and the potential need for blood transfusions. Patients may also experience shorter anesthesia times, less postoperative pain, and a faster recovery.
This virtual briefing will explore the clinical advantages of single-port robotic technology, including enhanced visualization of the surgical field and greater precision and dexterity for performing complex intracardiac procedures such as mitral valve repair. Dr. Suri will discuss the development of this pioneering technique and share insights into its impact on the future of robotic cardiac surgery.
