A podcast about neuromorphic engineering and biologically-inspired technology
Sunny talks to Dr Ryad Benosman about event-based vision, retinal prosthetics and neuromorphic startups. A co-founder of Prophesee, he explains why he believes AI’s future must come from neuromorphic engineering. After the interview, discussion follows with Giulia and Ralph. Read More …
Five engineers debate neuromorphic sensing and learning. Recorded at the Neuromorphic Hardware and Algorithms conference at the University of Sussex, panelists are Chiara Bartolozzi from the Italian Institute of Technology, Federico Corradi from Eindhoven University of Technology, James Knight from the University of Sussex, Laura Kriener from the Institute of Neuroinformatics in Zurich, and Sebastian Siegel from the Peter Grünberg Institute in Jülich. Sunny chairs, and discussion follows with Giulia and Ralph. Read More …
Sunny talks to Jeff Shainline about superconducting neural hardware currently in development at Great Sky in Boulder, Colorado. The new systems will incorporate photonic interconnects and a neuromorphic approach to intelligence. After the interview, discussion follows with Giulia and Ralph. Read More …
Sunny talks to Dr Patty Stabile of Eindhoven University of Technology about her optical neural networks with ultra-low-latency processing, and the semiconductor optical amplifiers that make them possible. After the interview, discussion follows with Giulia and Ralph. Read More …
This episode features a panel discussion on neuromorphic engineering and physical computing held at the Atoms to Bits: The AlphaBet of Intelligence v2.0 conference at the University of Manchester, February 2026. The panellists are Dr Damien Querlioz, Dr Julian Büchel, Prof Tamalika Banerjee, Dr Maxence Ernoult, and Prof Steve Furber, and Sunny chairs the discussion. Discussion follows with Giulia and Ralph.

Sunny talks to Sally Ward-Foxton, who covers AI chips for EETimes. They talk about the importance of power in all AI systems, the benefit of having dedicated inference chips and where neuromorphic fits into the market. After the interview, discussion follows with Giulia and Ralph. Read More …
Sunny talks to Prof Rodolphe Sepulchre, a control theorist from the University of Cambridge. They discuss the inspiration he took from studying biological neurons, why both discrete and continuous behaviors are inherent to how they work, and why building neurons is often easier than simulating them. After the interview, discussion follows with Giulia and Ralph. Read More …
Sunny guests are the CEO and CTO of Neuronova: an analog neuromorphic startup based in Milan, Italy. They talk about the company’s technology and strategy, and particularly how very low power can make a very big difference to the sustainability of many applications: particularly audio. After the interview, discussion follows with Giulia and Ralph.
