Computational & Systems Neuroscience

 
  January 13, 2004  
     
 


Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor, New York
March 24 - 28, 2004


We are pleased to announce a new meeting on Computational & Systems Neuroscience (COSYNE), which will be held at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, New York. The meeting will begin at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, March 24th, and will conclude with lunch on Sunday, March 28th, 2004. This meeting will bring together neuroscientists with shared interests in experimental and theoretical approaches to understanding the nervous system. The goal is promote interactions among experimental systems neuroscientists who employ or hope to exploit computational approaches, and theorists who are working on problems of interest to experimental systems neuroscientists.

The meeting will consist of morning and evening sessions comprised of short talks, principally on unpublished work, and two afternoon poster sessions. As usual at Cold Spring Harbor meetings, all abstracts of both poster and platform sessions will be published in an abstract book given to all the participants.

Topics include:
* Population coding
* Information theoretic approaches
* Analysis of complex, high-dimensional, data sets
* Plasticity
* Computing with spiking neurons
* Sensory processing
* Persistent activity & spatial maps
* Neural correlates of decision-making
* Motor systems
