Dear Students and Postdocs, There is still time to apply to the Cajal Computational Neuroscience course 2022! Application deadline: 28 March 2022 Apply here: http://cajal-training.org/on-site/ccn2022/ Stipends are available. Date and Location: 17 July - 6 August 2022 Champalimaud Center for the Unknown, Portugal Course directors: Brent Doiron, University of Chicago, US Maria Geffen, University of Pennsylvania, US Julijana Gjorgjieva, Max Planck Institute for Brain Research, Germany Joe Paton, Champalimaud Foundation, Portugal About the Cajal Computational Neuroscience Course The course teaches the central ideas, methods, and practices of modern computational neuroscience through a combination of lectures and hands-on project work. During the course’s mornings, distinguished international faculty deliver lectures on topics across the entire breadth of experimental and computational neuroscience. For the remainder of the time, students work on research projects in teams of 2 to 3 people under close supervision of expert tutors and faculty. Research projects are proposed by faculty before the course and include the modeling of neurons, neural systems, and behavior, the analysis of state-of-the-art neural data (behavioral data, multi-electrode recordings, calcium imaging data, connectomics data, etc.), and the development of theories to explain experimental observations.
