Jon Krohn (https://www.qplum.co/events/meetup/10262016/fundamentals-of-deep-learning) will provide an overview of deep learning with neural networks, with an emphasis on intuitive concepts, applications, and resources for self-study.

He will touch on basics like backpropagation, but it will not be a comprehensive 101. Via analogies to biological neurons and vision in primates, his primary goal is to provide an overview of the contemporary artificial neural network techniques.
