Currently accepting applications, deadline approaching.
The 3rd Computational and Cognitive Neurobiology Summer School is going to be held in Beijing, China. The objective of this course is to train in Computational Neuroscience talented and highly motivated students and postdocs from Asia and other countries in the world. Applicants with either quantitative, including Physics, Mathematics, Engineering and Computer Science or experimental background are welcomed. The lectures will introduce the basic concepts and methods, as well as cutting-edge research, in Computational and Systems/Cognitive Neurosciences. Modeling will be taught at multiple levels, ranging from subcellular processes, single neuron computation, to microcircuits and large-scale systems. Matlab-based programming labs coordinated with the lectures will provide practical training in important computational methods.
