 s-drop-cap">Theoretical/Computational Neuroscience is currently undergoing 
 a phase of unprecedented growth. Dramatic advances in the ease with which l
 arge-scale datasets of behavior\, neural activity\, connectomic and gene ex
 pression information can be collected have coincided with a revolution in t
 he capabilities of Artificial Intelligence-based algorithms to interrogate 
 such datasets. Concurrently\, these new datasets are inspiring exciting new
  developments in mathematical tools for extracting their underlying structu
 re and relationships.</p><p class="is-style-default">What is the current st
 ate of the art in our theoretical/computational understanding of the brain\
 , and what does the future hold?</p><p>The Center for Theoretical and Compu
 tational Neuroscience at Washington University in St Louis invited people t
 o join an exciting line-up of leaders in the field to address these questio
