Terrence Sejnowski

Terrence Sejnowski is a researcher in computational neuroscience and neural networks who received his M.A. and Ph.D. in physics from Princeton University in 1978. he is the Francis Crick Professor at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, where he directs the Computational Neurobiology Laboratory and the Crick-Jacobs Center for Theoretical and Computational Biology. Sejnowski is also a professor of the biological sciences and an adjunct professor for multiple departments at the University of California, San Diego, where he co-directs the Institute for Neural Computation. A pioneer in the field of neural networks, he has made significant contributions to computational neuroscience and co-invented the Boltzmann machine, which has been widely adopted in machine learning. His research aims to understand the computational resources of brains and build linking principles from the brain to behavior using computational models. Sejnowski has received numerous honors and awards, including being one of the only three living people to be elected to all four of the national academies (National Academy of Sciences, National Academy of Engineering, National Academy of Medicine, and the National Academy of Inventors).
