[Comp-neuro] MBL Methods in Computational Neuroscience Course 2014: applications due March 6

Applications are open for the Methods in Computational Neuroscience
course at the Marine Biology Laboratory in Woods Hole, MA. The course
will run from July 30 to August 27, 2014, and the online application
form can be found at:
http://ws2.mbl.edu/studentapp/studentapp.asp?CourseID=MCN. The course
application deadline is March 6.

The course covers a range of topics in computational neuroscience
including neuronal biophysics, neural coding & information processing,
circuit dynamics, learning & memory, motor control, and cognitive
processing & disease. In addition, numerous tutorials and problem sets
will cover a broad range of computational and mathematical modeling
methods. The course strongly emphasizes the collaboration between
theory and experiment in solving neuroscience problems, and lectures
will be given by a mixture of theorists and experimentalists. The final
weeks of the course will primarily be reserved for development and work
on projects that students design in collaboration with the resident
faculty. Further information can be found on the MCN website:
