%% Application deadline: June 30, 2011 %%
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Aim of the course
The course is intended to provide advanced Diploma/Masters and PhD students,
as well as young researchers from the neurosciences with approaches for the
analysis of electrophysiological data and the theoretical concepts behind
them.
http://www.bcf.uni-freiburg.de/events/conferences/20111016-nwgcourse
The course includes various topics such as
• Neuron models and spike train statistics
• Point processes and correlation measures
• Systems and signals
• Local field potentials and synaptic plasticity
The course will consist of lectures in the morning and and matching
exercises using Matlab and Mathematica. Experience with these software
packages will be helpful but is not required for registration. The
participants should have a basic understanding of scientific programming.
This course is designated especially for advanced diploma/master-students
and PhD-students (preferentially in their first year).

The Bernstein Conference is the central scientific meeting of the
Bernstein Network Computational Neuroscience (www.nncn.de).
This year, it is organized by the Bernstein Center Freiburg and
will take place on October 4-6, 2011, in association with the
Annual Meeting of the tri-national neuroscience network Neurex
(www.neurex.org).
BC11 is a single-track conference, covering all aspects of
Computational Neuroscience and Neurotechnology (CN & NT).
We invite the submission of abstracts for poster presentations
from all relevant areas of CN & NT, including, but not limited to:
- sensory processing
- motor control
- learning and plasticity
- neural encoding and decoding
- neurons, networks and dynamical systems
- data analysis and machine learning
- brain-related diseases, network dysfunction, intervention
- neurotechnology, brain-machine interfaces
The abstracts will be published in the journal
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience.
