Please note that this workshop was just now rescheduled to an earlier date and time! Here is a link to the workshop webpage for those interested in oscillations: https://www.medschool.lsuhsc.edu/cell_biology/cns_2025.aspx Here is link to the conference website https://www.cnsorg.org/cns-2025 Workshop on Mechanisms for Oscillatory Neural Synchrony CNS*2025 in Florence, Italy on July 08, 2025 From 09:00 to 12:30 This workshop will bring together researchers who have recently published on synchronization networks of coupled oscillators, with a mix of approaches but an emphasis on phase response curve (PRC) theory. The researchers come from both theoretical and experimental backgrounds. Topics include synchronization mechanisms for theta nested gamma in the medial entorhinal cortex, mean-field pulsatile coupling methods for fast oscillations in inhibitory networks, beta oscillations in parkinsonian basal ganglia, the relative contributions of synaptic and ultra-fast non-synaptic ephaptic coupling to the inhibition of cerebellar Purkinje cells by basket cells, infinitesimal macroscopic PRC (imPRC) within the exact mean-field theory applied to ING and PING, and robustness in a neuromechanical model of motor pattern generation.
