Join the “Turing NeuroAI Supra-Interest Group” and attend the Inaugural Webinar
Join an innovative new group that sits at the intersection of neuroscience and artificial intelligence; the “Turing NeuroAI Supra-Interest Group”. Details provided below.
This initiative is supported by the Alan Turing Institute, the UK’s national institute for data science and artificial intelligence, and aligns with the Turing’s commitment to foster interdisciplinary collaboration in order to extend the limits of science and healthcare innovation.
This group is dedicated to bringing together a diverse community of professionals with interests in the fields of neuroscience, neurology, neurosurgery, neurotechnology, and the broader clinical field, who share a keen interest in the application of Clinical AI. The group ultimately aims to:
- Enhance Knowledge Sharing: Facilitate the exchange of ideas, research findings, and best practices among peers.
- Expand Networking Opportunities: Connect you with like-minded professionals across academia, industry, and clinical settings.
- Offer Educational Resources: Organise webinars and workshops on cutting-edge topics relevant to Neuro-AI.
- Build a Comprehensive Database: Compile a resource of UK-based scientists, clinicians and industry leaders active in Neuro-AI, to foster collaboration and innovation.
To join the Turing NeuroAI Supra-Interest Group, please follow the link to our “Join Us” page on the Clinical-AI section of the Turing Institute website: https://www.turing.ac.uk/research/interest-groups/clinical-ai.
We would also like to invite you to our inaugural webinar to be delivered by Mr Hani Marcus (UCL) on “AI to Advance Surgery for Patients with Pituitary Tumours”, held on 4th September at 17:00 UK time (BST). To read more and register, please see the links below:

This talk explores groundbreaking research on immune ageing, analysing data from over 6,700 individuals to reveal how immune traits change across the lifespan. Using machine learning, Eoin’s work identifies "immune age" as a predictor of mortality, independent of chronological age, and highlights key immune mechanisms linked to survival. Genetic analyses further uncover connections between immune ageing and autoimmune diseases, offering new insights into ageing and longevity.
University of Oxford – Vice Chancellor guest edit on BBC Radio 4
The Vice Chancellor of the University of Oxford, Professor Irene Tracey’s guest edit was broadcast on 28 December 2024. The programme features our CPNN+ P.I (Professor Ben Seymour) who describes his own pain lab at Oxford. Professor Tracey, also a neuroscientist, reflects on her own research field in understanding and treating pain, and the broader role that Universities play in society.
‘Ouch! Solving the riddle of pain’
We all know what hurts, but why is it so difficult to describe? Emma Cook (Assistant Editor for The Observer magazine) meets the neurologists attempting to solve one of medicine’s most enduring issues and what it means for patients – and hears from a woman who has never felt pain.
