“Minimal Recognizable Configurations Elicit Category-selective Responses in Higher Order Visual Cortex” introduces the concept of Minimal Recognizable Configurations (MIRCs), as presented by Shimon Ullman et al. A MIRC is defined as the smallest visual configuration of image components that remains reliably recognizable as belonging to a specific category.

So, I have travelled to multiple conferences as a part of my research career, but the M2L summer school 2025 (8-12 September 2025) was a bit special for me. I enjoyed every bit of the Summer Schoool. It was super exciting to visit the Mediterenean countries and also see the enthusiasm of undergraduates. Before the summer school started, we got an invitation to the slack and also the whole schedule of the summer school which was nothing short of great!

So after ICLR 2025 in Singapore, I visited the SfN (Society for Neuroscience Chapter) in Singapore at the A* Star institute which was nothing beyond amazing. The facilities at the institute were world class and I got to meet some of the best researchers in Neuroscience there, and alongside present my work! I was happy to have 20 people at my poster with great discusssions about something new that we were putting forward. I am glad I got the chance to visit Singapore for this conference as it was once in a lifetime opportunity for me!

All science enthusiasts are like wanderers in a field who try to unravel the secrets of nature. Human curiosity is inbuilt and we all have innate desire to discover the world around us and be informed! Physics is the fundamental science branching into narrow pathways leading scientific discovery of the unimaginable, the unexpected, the exciting and electrifying.

A machine is something which performs automated tasks , making a machine perform is like making a baby learn how to do something ; be it walking, dancing etc. Humans have always wanted to reduce their own efforts and augment the powers of the machine in order to make things faster, efficient and reduce their redundancy. It is information which passes on from something which is able to think to something which may or may not be able to itself perform a particular task or conjecture upon and analyse it. Giving machines the information is all that we’ve been doing; be it through electrical impulses,mechanical impulses or other methods.

So what is Neurogenesis? Neurogenesis is the process by which neurones are generated from neural stem cells and progenitor cells. The generation of neuronal cells in the hippocampus is responsible for memory as well as emotions. Every day our brain is generating new cells (about 700 on an average) which encode our memories and the emotions follow with what we associate that particular memory with.

As an undergrad, it was the first time I got a chance to attend a conference. It was the Bernstein Computational Neuroscience Conference and the International Conference on Computational Neuroscience which was held from 11–12 October 2017 at Humboldt Universität zu Berlin (Humboldt University of Berlin). It was an enriching experience for a novice like me to get acquainted with ideas of the top researchers in the field. Almost like a dream come true for me.
