Comp. Neuro

Summary

Presentation I gave in 9.29, the computational neuroscience class at MIT. They attempted to build a model that could use the information obtained from recordings in the prefrontal cortex and other areas of a monkey brain to predict their behavior based on the 'state' their neuron groups were in.
