Applications are now open for 2026 Beckman Institute Postdoctoral Fellowships. The deadline to apply is 5 p.m. CST Monday, Nov. 24, 2025.

Submit your contribution by November 26th to this special number organized by Dr. Francis Heylighen and Dr. Tomas Veloz.

This call is aimed at enabling the incorporation into the university of people who hold the title of Doctor in order to develop teaching and research capacities and, where appropriate, knowledge transfer and exchange, and to perform university governance functions.

The Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences offers graduate training leading to a doctoral degree in Psychological and Brain Science or Cognitive Neuroscience. Research within the department is focused on several areas, including systems and behavioral neuroscience, cognitive and computational neuroscience, and social and affective neuroscience.

Shannon's information theory does not consider meaning; it is a quantitative theory focused on the probability and transmission of messages as signals, completely divorcing information from its semantic content. The paper I am reviewing today proposes a way, based on Shannon's approach, to measure the semantic aspects of systems.

The Empire AI Fellows Program and the Foundational AI Fellows Program jointly invite applications for post-doctoral fellow positions at Cornell University. The mission of the programs is to advance foundational and applied research in contemporary artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), as well as AI-enabled science. Specifically, our goals are to pioneer cutting-edge technical research that will transform current AI paradigms, bring about deep understanding of AI models, and enable the next generation of AI technologies. Fellows will be selected based on their demonstrated potential to undertake transformative research.

By uniting neuroscience insights with scalable AI tools, the workshop aims to bridge theory, experiment, and application—fostering cross-pollination where AI researchers gain biologically grounded inductive biases, and neuroscientists leverage modern computational frameworks to advance discovery.

Research Scientists at Google DeepMind lead our efforts in developing novel algorithmic architecture towards the end goal of solving and building Artificial General Intelligence.
