You're (sadly) not the first to report this being broken on Ubuntu. As a
quick fix you could just install the neurodebian-keyring package

 sudo apt-get install neurodebian-keyring

that will ship the key. You need to ignore the warning about untrusted
sources for this one. Afterwards everything should be fine.

We need to investigate this....
