Yulia Sandamirskaya is leading a group ``Neuromorphic Cognitive Robots'' that builds brain-inspired computing architectures for robots using spiking and continuous neuronal dynamics. She is interested in long-term memory formation, sequence learning, sensorimotor maps learning, spatial cognition, and navigation, and aims at realising these processes in mixed signal analog/digital neuromorphic chips, interfaced to robotic systems. She builds neuronal architectures that can perceive, learn, and act autonomously in a closed sensor-motor loop.
