Taylor Newton was born in Connecticut, USA.
Taylor received his doctorate in simulation neuroscience from EPFL in 2019, where he studied the cellular origins of mesoscale voltage-sensitive dye signals in an in silico model of rodent neocortical microcircuitry. He joined the IT'IS Foundation in August 2020. At IT'IS, he leads various projects related to computational modeling of brain stimulation, network dynamics, and electrical neuromodulation. In addition, he has interests in statistics, complexity theory, and evolutionary biology.
