18–20 September 2023

In person | Kaliningrad, Russia

Baltic Forum 2023: Neuroscience, AI and Complex Systems is dedicated to the advancements in fundamental and applied science at the intersection of brain research, artificial intelligence, nonlinear dynamics, theory of complex systems and social and ethical aspects of the global digitalization of our lives.

The Forum will be attended by leading world and Russian scientists, as well as young researchers working in or across the following disciplines: complexity theory, neurotechnology and neuroscience, neurobiology, artificial intelligence and machine learning, nonlinear dynamics, self-organizing systems, brain-computer interfaces, biological and medical applications of control theory, communication and transport, controlled systems in physics, dynamics and control of complex networks, thermodynamic control, ecosystems and climate control, social networks, control of quantum systems, intelligent robotics, neurophilosophy and technoethics, predictive and preventive medicine.

Baltic Forum: Neuroscience, AI and Complex Systems includes two large thematic conferences, initiative mini-symposia and provide unique international platform for the exchange of scientific, technical and educational ideas, results and achievements between leading specialists, including young scientists and students working in such rapidly developing areas of modern science.

Baltic Forum: Neuroscience, AI and Complex Systems is designed to promote active interaction of specialists in various scientific fields both at the national and international levels.

This Forum draws upon the successful experience of holding international events in Russia: International Conference «Neurotechnologies and Neurointerfaces» (4 conferences have been held since 2015) and Scientific School «Dynamics of Complex Networks and Its Applications in Intelligent Robotics» (6 conferences have been held since 2017).

The Baltic Forum: Neuroscience, Artificial Intelligence and Complex Systems was held in 2021 and 2022. All papers of the Forum are published in the proceedings of V and VI Scientific School «Dynamics of Complex Networks and their Applications» (DCNA 2021 and DCNA 2022) and The Third and Fourth International Conference «Neurotechnologies and Neurointerfaces» (CNN 2021 and CNN 2022). The proceedings are also published in IEEE Xplore and indexed in Scopus (DCNA'2021, DCNA’2022, CNN'2021, CNN’2022).
