Atlanta Computational Neuroscience Workshop

On April 8, 2008 Dr. Nancy Kopell, a member of the National Academy of Sciences, will present a talk in the Distinguished Scholar Lecture Series of the Brains and Behavior program at Georgia State University.

On the occasion of Dr Kopell's visit, we organize a satellite workshop on Computational Neuroscience in Atlanta, and would like to gather researchers interested in this dynamic field.

The workshop will include invited talks (20+5 min) and posters. If you would like to present a poster send its title and abstract to Andrey Shilnikov [ashilnikov AT gsu DOT edu (subject Comp Neuroscience workshop) by February 15, 2008.

There will be an evening reception on the 8th
(the surcharge is $15)
