I have no idea how in the world youtube knows that I've been planning to pursue a masters in computational neuroscience and suggested your videos to me, but whatever black magic it's doing, I'm glad it worked and that I'm watching this now. I'd love to see more content regarding this field of research directed to people who are still taking their first steps into it.
Wonderful video Charlotte! I appreciated the clarity you gave about “computational” vs “cognitive”. I’m a 3rd year psychology student and a hobby programmer, so discovering this field of study via your channel has been very interesting and has really piqued my curiosity. I’m not sure if you’ve already done something like this, but I’d love a video or series of videos where you highlight a few really influential papers in the field and give an overview/explanation of them!
Great content as always! I’d be curious to hear what might be barriers for people trying to get into or reasons to not go for a degree in computational neuroscience. Thanks for the videos!
Great! Do you think companies invest on comp neuro people which invested their PhD on a biochemical side of modelling? Do you think comp neuro people should do some wet lab work to get into the specifics of how the process of data collection (they dearly need) looks like?
Thank you for your elegant contents❤ I have a masters in cognitive psychology and a bachelor in education science and currently, I’m a primary school teacher. I wanted to apply for PhD programs that focuses more on the computational side of neuroscience, before my bachelor in education, I’ve been a mechanical engineering student for three semesters and I have basic knowledge of coding and an super analytical mindset. Do you think my academic journey would be of any interest for a professor?
Great video! Shame that even with my institutional login through my university I don't have access to the Nature article on the Universal Language Network :(
Yeah nature is really bad with that, but most articles are also freely posted by researches on bioarchive: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.28.454040v2
Hi, I wondered if a lot of people go into computational neuroscience research (e.g. BCIs) from doing a CS or AI background, and if it's better to have done something with more maths? I am choosing between CS and Maths, and CS and AI undergraduate degree, but I don't know if the latter usually contains enough of the math needed, and if it's harder to teach yourself on the side. I don't know if good computational neuroscience postgraduate programs prefer you to have done the math in the degree itself?
Dear Charlotte and everyone else, I'm in such a dilemma. Can I ask how old were you when you started your PhD, and did you do it as a master's + PhD combined, or did you finish a master's degree first? I am 25 and would be 26 if I started a PhD in September next year, I finished my master's degree in neuroscience and neuroimaging this June. I am feeling very lost and worried about time running away from me. The thing is, I do want to do a PhD, but I am worried about it becoming too stressful and too hard to survive on such a small income for up to 4 years more (the past few years have been hard with the rising prices). I feel like 26 is already pretty old too... it's normal in Denmark, but if I were to do a PhD abroad, I feel like people start it at like 23 years old or something. I'm just not sure what to do anymore. I'm mostly worried about the money and stress. I almost broke down with stress during my master's project, but nevertheless finished on time with an A, so I'm not sure. In my heart, I want to do a research project, but I don't want to ever feel so bad mentally again, and I don't want to be poor for four years more either :( But being unemployed is also really stressful and depressing tbh. What to do???
I'm doing a bachelor in psychology and in my minor I have business administration. Is there a way to go in the direction of cognitive or even computational neuroscience?

You want to get into a computational field and don't know the phenomena of data science??
@@harshitheya you must be fun at parties
How do you manage your social life.
Does a PhD student have a good social life?
Wow thank you for taking up my question🥰I really felt excited when I saw my comment hehe
Thanks for the clarification!

Thank you for taking up my question and giving an answer.
Thank you for your generous and beautiful work.
Great content as always!

Thanks so much for you answer! It helps a lot
thanks for sharing! very inspiring!

There's a beast beneath the boards

@@CharlotteFraza OMG THANK YOU! I had no idea this existed and it's amaaaazing!
Can you share how physics and computer science are used in computational neuroscience?
Do you use these disciplines a lot in your everyday tasks?
Yes, actually, it is more the framework you get taught at physics (thus the math etc) and for CS I use it in all my coding projects.

Can I give you one subject : brain body interactions during different activities or state of mind .
