CALL FOR PAPERS - BIOSIGNALS 2025 - DECIDE SPECIAL SESSION IN PERSONALIZED BRAIN MEDICINE
by Vassilis Cutsuridis Nov. 15, 2024

Nov. 15, 2024

Dear colleagues, You are invited to submit a paper to DECIDE 2025 Special Session<https://biostec.scitevents.org/DECIDE.aspx> hosted by the BIOSIGNALS 2025<https://biosignals.scitevents.org/Home.aspx> conference to be held on 20-22 February 2025 in Porto, Portugal Title: Data- and Theory-Driven Approaches in Personalized Brain Medicine: from Diagnosis to Treatment (DECIDE) Scope: Deciding the right diagnosis, the best treatment and predicting the evolution of the disease is of paramount importance in personalized medicine. Diseases are dynamic and very heterogeneous. Etiologies are complex and often several hypotheses are needed to explain their pathogenesis. This is because studies carried out isolate the effects of a single mechanism and not the interaction of many mechanisms. This leads to a set of conflicting results difficult to interpret. Data-driven (ML/DL) and theory driven (Dynamical models) approaches dealing with diverse data are increasingly used in medicine. Bridging the gap between data- and theory-driven approaches is the central theme of the special session. Real progress in personalized medicine can only be made via such cross-disciplinary interactions. Topics of interest Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Computational/mathematical models of drug and stimulation treatments and therapies * Data processing, image and signal reconstruction and enhancement and cross-modality synthesis * Development of a culture of mathematical and computational modelling of brain diseases that will benefit those in clinical practice * Extraction of biomarkers from ‘omics’, signal and imaging data * Machine learning algorithms for prediction of disease evolution * Machine learning algorithms in disease detection and diagnosis * Multi-scale, multi-level models of disease understanding * Translation research on the dynamics of diseases into treatments for age related illnesses Important Dates Paper Submission: December 18, 2024 Authors Notification: January 14, 2025 Camera Ready and Registration: January 22, 2025 Publications Extensions of selected papers will be hosted in a Cognitive Computation journal (Springer-Nature)<https://link.springer.com/journal/12559> special issue organized by the event organizers.

[Meetings] 2025 Nengo Summer School Call For Applications
by Michael Furlong Nov. 15, 2024

Nov. 15, 2024

Dear colleagues, [All details about this school can be found online at https://www.nengo.ai/summer-school] The Centre for Theoretical Neuroscience at the University of Waterloo is excited to announce our 10th annual Nengo summer school on large-scale brain modelling and neuromorphic computing. This two-week school will teach participants to use the Nengo simulation package to build state-of-the-art cognitive and neural models to run both in simulation and on neuromorphic hardware. Summer school participants will be given on-site access to neuromorphic hardware and will learn to run high-level applications using Nengo! More generally, Nengo provides users with a versatile and powerful environment for designing cognitive and neural systems and has been used to build what is currently the world's largest functional brain model, Spaun, which includes spiking deep learning, reinforcement learning, adaptive motor control, and cognitive control networks. For a look at the last in-person summer school, check out this short video: https://youtu.be/nFYTqieEnSY We welcome applications from all interested graduate students, postdocs, professors, and industry professionals with a relevant background. ***Application Deadline: February 1, 2025*** Format: A combination of tutorials and project-based work. Participants are encouraged to bring their own ideas for projects, which may focus on testing hypotheses, modelling neural or cognitive data, implementing specific behavioural functions with neurons, expanding past models, or providing a proof-of-concept of various neural mechanisms. Hands-on tutorials, work on individual or group projects, and talks from invited faculty members will make up the bulk of day-to-day activities. A project demonstration event will be held on the last day of the school, with prizes for strong projects! Participants will have the opportunity to learn how to: * interface Nengo with various kinds of neuromorphic hardware (e.g. BrainDrop, SpiNNaker) * build perceptual, motor, and sophisticated cognitive models using spiking neurons * model anatomical, electrophysiological, cognitive, and behavioural data * use a variety of single cell models within a large-scale model  * integrate machine learning methods into biologically oriented models * interface Nengo with cameras and robotic systems * implement modern nonlinear control methods in neural models * and much more… Date and Location: June 1st to June 13th, 2025 at the University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.

Organizing scientific events in neuroscience - Online Workshop, Dec 5th
by Mateusz Kostecki Nov. 12, 2024

Nov. 12, 2024

Hello! We are happy to announce our new workshop! Organizing scientific events—workshops, summer schools, conferences, symposia—seems like a complex and overwhelming endeavor. You need to design the structure of your event, secure funding, invite guests, promote it, process payments, and contact participants; you need to take care of catering, flights, hotels, and dates. It is a lot, but with a proper approach, some knowledge, and the right people around you, you can organize a successful event even with limited resources. During our workshop, you will learn how to: - design your event, select its target and set goals - secure funding: find sponsors, write grant applications - promote your event on social media and mailing groups - how to approach graphic design - how to contact guests and prepare invitations - how to proceed with funding: event fees, grants, sponsors’ money - how to ensure a good atmosphere - what to do afterward And much more! The event will take place on Thursday, Dec 5th at Nencki Institute, 10 AM – 1 PM. The cost of the workshop is EUR 25. Please find the application form here: https://nenckiopenlab.org/organizing-scientific-events/. The deadline for applications is Nov 25th.
