Applications will open on April 8 for the XXVIII School of Physiology and Biophysics on Computational approaches in systems neurophysiology organized by the Italian Physiological Society (SIF), which will be held from June 16 to June 18, 2025, in Rome, Italy.  

Here you can find the announcement and th program.

Enquires: sif.sfb.2026@gmail.com

Application deadline: May 4, 2026 

The school is organized by a team of neurophysiologists from the University of Rome Tor Vergata, coordinated by Francesco Lacquaniti. The program includes an opening lecture introducing the rationale for computational approaches in systems neurophysiology, followed by a series of eight thematic lectures covering topics such as computational analysis of human locomotion, muscular and kinematic synergies, vestibular system computation, eye-movement analysis, structural and functional MRI, psychophysical modeling, and quantitative neuromodulation. These lectures are complemented by four keynote lectures addressing neural coding of joint action, multiscale brain modeling and digital twins, machine-learning approaches to spinal pattern generators, and multimodal quantitative neurophysiology applied to neurostimulation. 

Most lectures are accompanied by hands-on tutorials, during which participants will analyze real experimental datasets using MATLAB and R, with sample datasets and analysis scripts provided. Throughout the course, tutors will be available to support participants, encourage discussion, and facilitate scientific interaction with the lecturers.

Best regards,

Andrea d’Avella and the Organizing Committee
