GROSSMAN CENTER
FOR THE STATISTICS OF MIND

LETTER FROM THE DIRECTORS
"We are approaching a scenario where the number of simultaneously recorded neurons gives us a view of activity with sufficient signal-to-noise that there is little need (other than as a sanity check) to repeat the same cognitive events twice. This will allow us to study intelligent behavior in the way one always wished to: as animals find novel solutions to problems and figure out what to do next in a world where the same internal and external events rarely repeat themselves."
—Mark M. Churchland, PhD
OUR
GREATEST ASSETS
The Grossman Center for the Statistics of Mind was created in 2012 to unite a variety of people who are diverse in talent, expertise and thought, to better understand the brain by applying quantitative methods that uncover deep and meaningful structure in large neural datasets. The exceptional cohort of scholars performing this work is our greatest asset. By fostering collaboration among them and across the many schools and departments at Columbia from which they hail, the Grossman Center places a particular focus on the merger of computational statistics and experimental data acquisition.
