Neuromorphic computing: Mimicking the human brain for smarter AI
Dataquest, 29 August 2025
From Intel's Loihi to breakthroughs in memristors, neuromorphic computing offers potential breakthroughs with more energy-efficient, adaptive, and brain-like data processing capabilities that could change the way we build smarter and more sustainable AI. The first time I witnessed a child stack blocks, I felt like I was watching a miniature computer learn. She didn't plan the tower, she felt for balance…

Inter­na­tional Success: Austrian Re­search Part­ner­ship Sets New Stan­dards in Neuro­mor­phic Computing
SAL Silicon Austria Labs, 26 August 2025
Unlike clas­sical computers, which process infor­ma­tion in bits, the human brain uses short elec­trical impulses—known as spikes. What matters is the precise timing of these spikes, which carries the actual infor­ma­tion. This timing-based repre­sen­ta­tion allows the brain to transmit more complex infor­ma­tion per signal compared to a digital bit, which can only be “0” or “1.” The inter­vals between…

Researchers Unlock Faster Brain-Inspired Computing
Quantum Zeitgeist, 21 August 2025
The pursuit of energy-efficient computing inspired by the human brain increasingly focuses on harnessing the movement of magnetic domain walls, tiny boundaries within magnetic materials, as a means of processing information. Jeffrey Brock, Aleksandr Kurenkov, and Aleš Hrabec, at the Laboratory for Mesoscopic Systems at ETH Zurich, alongside Laura Heyderman and colleagues, now demonstrate a significant…

“We’re building chips that think like the brain” — I got a front row seat to see how neuromorphic computing will transform your next smart device
Tom's guide, 11 August 2025
For how powerful today’s “smart” devices are, they’re not that good at working smarter rather than working harder. With AI constantly connected to the cloud and the chip constantly processing tasks (even when the device is asleep), this leads to high power consumption, limited privacy, and the constant need for connectivity. Neuromorphic computing offers a radical alternative, but what is it?…

PhD position- Fast and Slow Learning with New Materials

Institute of Neuroinformatics, University of Zurich and ETH Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland
When deploying an AI system into the real world, the data it operates on can be very different from the dataset it was trained on, because environmental conditions and/or task requirements shift over time. State-of-the-art systems struggle to adapt to such changes due to both hardware and algorithmic limitations. To overcome this, we propose separating the time scales of learning within tasks and across tasks into distinct but interacting learning mechanisms implemented on multi-core neuromorphic hardware….

PhD position- Bridging Analog and Digital Design in Neuromorphic Systems
Institute of Neuroinformatics, University of Zurich and ETH Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland
This project aims to bridge the gap between analog and digital approaches, combining the strengths of both. – At the physical level, sensory inputs will be processed using analog circuits with memristive devices, implementing sequence models that extract both short-term and long-term dynamics. – At the functional level, higher-order cognitive processes such as decision making, perception, and motor control will be carried out using digital circuits, leveraging the features extracted by the analog frontend. The successful candidate will explore this hybrid paradigm, working across device physics, circuit design, and computational models, with the goal of delivering architectures that combine the efficiency of analog computing with the flexibility and robustness of digital systems….
