[Comp-neuro] Summer Workshop on the Dynamic Brain, Friday Harbor: deadline approaching!

Reminder that applications for the Summer Workshop on the Dynamic Brain, co-organized by the Allen Institute for Brain Science and the Computational Neuroscience Program at the University of Washington and directed by Drs.
