Announcing Neuromatch Academy courses for 2021!
by Mohamed Abdelhack April 19, 2021

April 19, 2021

Dear colleagues, We are excited to announce that Neuromatch Academy (NMA) will offer two courses this year: NMA-Computational Neuroscience: July 5-23, 2021 Content: https://github.com/NeuromatchAcademy/course-content NMA-Deep Learning: Aug 2-20, 2021 Content: https://github.com/NeuromatchAcademy/course-content-dl Applications for interactive students and teaching assistants will be open April 15 to May 7th 2021. Faculty interested in being project mentors can use the same portal to apply. Application Portal: https://portal.neuromatchacademy.org/ What is Neuromatch Academy? Neuromatch Academy (NMA) launched last year as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Our aimis to provide globally-accessible, high-quality, TA-supported training in computational techniques related to neuroscience. In 2020, NMA designed and ran a fully online 3-week Computational Neuroscience course for 1757 students with 191 teaching assistants (TAs) working in virtual inverted (or flipped) classrooms and on small group projects. Fourteen languages, active community management, and low cost allowed for an unprecedented level of inclusivity and universal accessibility. What’s in a course? Our courses are intensive 3-week programs involving hands-on tutorials developed by experts in the field. We have two tracks for students: interactive and observer. Accepted interactive students are placed into TA-led pods (groups) using the neuromatch algorithm, which matches students with common interests who are in the same timezone and their preferred language for instruction. Interactive students receive personalized support as they work through hands-on tutorials and collaborate on course projects. Officially registered observer track students have full access to the materials, access to NMA course communications (e.g., Discord), and can choose to be matched with other observer track students What does it cost? We charge full-time students/academics a region adjusted small fee for the Interactive track in order to pay for TAs (fee waivers are available to those who need it, no questions asked). Students without an academic affiliation (i.e., industry applicants) are charged the full unsubsidized cost of the school, but can also inquire about waivers. Observer track participants have access to all the content at no cost, but are not placed in TA-led pods. Please see the website (https://academy.neuromatch.io/) for additional information, pre-course resources and volunteer opportunities! Warm Regards, Neuromatch Academy team Follow [@neuromatch](https://twitter.com/neuromatch) on twitter for regular updates!

HRP funds research with the goal of buying down the risks associated with spaceflight such as the effects of space radiation on the CNS. Currently, the NASA Human Research Program has an active solicitation, Appendix E Topic 2, that is focused on utilizing computational brain models to characterize the effects of space radiation exposure. Due to the limited time, Step-1s (1 page LOI) due April 30th, would it be possible for an administrator to send the information below to the Computation Neuroscience Mailing list? I have also included information about our omnibus opportunity Appendix F that is released three times a year. The NASA Human Research Program has released two funding opportunities for research relevant to the Space Radiation Element. Appendix E Flagship Opportunity: https://tinyurl.com/HERO20-HHP<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftinyurl.c…> Space Radiation Topics: Topic 2. Computational Brain Modeling to Characterize the Effects of Space Radiation Exposure Specific Research Focus Area This topic seeks proposals that focus on identifying, based on historical data / prior research, biophysical parameters and structural features that are altered after radiation exposure and to substitute these into computational brain models in patterns reflecting radiation exposure. The model can then be used to interrogate how network activity is altered and its implications on information processing and network stability – i.e. a perturbation analysis. Network firing statistics, ability to maintain oscillations, etc. would represent some of the potential outcome measures. Due to high complexity of the research required, we encourage cross-discipline collaboration and multi-disciplinary teams, including but not limited to radiation biologists, radiation physicists, computational modelers, neuroscientists, etc. Research Platform Ground-based analogs, Computational.
