Dear Comp-Neuro Mailing List, Last year, the Canadian Computational Neuroscience Spotlight <https://www.crowdcast.io/e/CCNS/register> (CCNS) was one of the first neuroscience conferences to successfully transition into the virtual space <https://journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/article?id=10.1371/journal.pcbi.1008485> due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with more than 450 registrants from across the globe. Given the overwhelmingly positive feedback we received from this first meeting, we are excited to announce a “v2” of the conference will take place this coming May 17-18, and registration is now open <https://www.crowdcast.io/e/ccnsv2/register>. We are hoping that you will not only register for the meeting, but advertise it via email listservs, social media, and any other avenues you deem appropriate. CCNSv2 will feature four sessions chaired by internationally recognized computational neuroscientists on topics that bridge the multiple scales at which neuroscience research, both computationally and experimentally, is performed. Three of our four chairs are currently confirmed: *Dr. Etay Hay* of the Krembil Centre for Neuroinformatics, *Dr. Maurizio de Pitta *of the Basque Center for Applied Mathematics, and *Dr. Bratislav Misic* of McGill University. As CCNS was designed as a “trainee focused” meeting, each session will begin with a tutorial talk in which a topic of importance will be introduced for a broad audience. We also will host two panel discussions, one with experienced computational neuroscience researchers and the other with ECRs and current trainees, to provide a forum for trainees to ask questions of scientists at various stages of their careers. We invite all trainees to submit an abstract <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdCRPkDuPdoS3M7PISDITXfB__rWDiFEi94uEaUDa-SIxyniw/viewform> to give a “trainee talk” at the meeting. We anticipate accepting all applications that reasonably fall under the broad banner of computational neuroscience unless the demand far exceeds our expectations. We will also provide an additional spotlight to four talks that are both the most meritorious and best fit with the focused themes of the meeting. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions regarding this meeting or manners of advertising it. We look forward to seeing you at CCNSv2!
