We are happy that Tengjun, another lab alumnus graduated with flying colors at this home university in China. Tengjun was a visiting student from Zhejiang University in our group from 2023 to 2024. He worked with Julian and Julia on training spiking neural networks to decode cortical spike trains for next-generation brain-computer interfaces. Their work won several awards and we are happy to hear that his dissertation was awarded the title of ‘Outstanding Graduate’ by Zhejiang University and the Zhejiang Province.
