Network Neuroscience Satellite at Networks2021 online conference - Call for contributions
The 2021 Network Neuroscience Satellite <https://netneurosci.github.io/networks2021satellite> of the Networks2021 <https://networks2021.net/> conference will happen online between June 28 and July 2, with the most likely dates being June 30/July 1 (TBC soon). *Background and Motivation:* Recent technological developments have enabled mapping and recording of neural systems with unprecedented coverage and detail. Increasingly, the brain’s structure and function are approached from the perspective of complexity and networks, with theoretical and empirical/computational studies that conceptualize the brain as a complex system, composed of elements and interactions that are dynamically and functionally integrated. Network science offers important conceptual tools, insights, and robust computational methods for dynamic network systems’ analyses. At the intersection of networks and brain science, the interdisciplinary field of Network Neuroscience is now addressing a broad range of both basic and applied scientific questions, regarding many aspects of brain architecture and function. This satellite will provide an opportunity for participants with diverse backgrounds to present cutting-edge research, discuss latest network findings and exchange ideas. *Invited speakers:* - Maurizio Corbetta (University of Padua, Italy) - Plamen Ch. Ivanov (Boston University, United States) - Mariangeles Serrano (University of Barcelona, Spain) - Carolyn Parkinson (University of California Los Angeles, United States) - Dimitri Van De Ville (EPFL and University of Geneva, Switzerland) *Organizing and program committee:* - Richard F. Betzel (Indiana University, United States) - Fabrizio De Vico Fallani (INRIA, France) - Katja Heuer (Max Planck Institute for Cognitive and Brain Sciences, Germany) - Daniele Marinazzo (Ghent University, Belgium) - Olaf Sporns (Indiana University, United States) - Roberto Toro (Pasteur Institute, France) - Emma Towlson (University of Calgary, Canada) - Robin Wilkins (University of North Carolina, United States) The satellite will include a number of* poster and oral presentations* contributed by submission. For the poster sessions we are working to provide a friendly, robust, and inclusive platform to maximize the quality of the interactions. If you would like to present your work, please, follow this link to <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=netneuro2021>Easychair <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=netneuro2021>, select the type of contribution and submit your abstract by *April 9th*. Abstracts should be in pdf format and no longer than 1 page (about 500 words). Please note that we have only a limited number of slots available for oral presentations, and encourage you to consider submitting your work as a poster. We will be holding a dedicated session for the posters. Oral presentations (“Contributed Talks”, 15 minutes) will be selected by the program committee. We welcome submissions from all areas of Network Neuroscience, to include (but not limited to): - Brain transcriptional and gene regulation networks; - Structural brain networks; - Functional brain networks; - Network theory, modeling and analysis; - Network communication and information flow; - Circuit dynamics; - Brain-behavior interactions; - Systems neuroscience; - Clinical applications. Please note that as per the rules of Networks2021, you may not deliver the same oral presentation in this satellite as at the main conference. Posters, however, may be presented at the satellite and at the main conference if appropriate. Communication of accepted submissions and invitations for oral “contributed talks” will be sent by *April 23rd*. The early deadline for registration at the Networks2021 conference is *May 1st*.
