Python in Neuroscience satellite 2011
Paris, Ecole Normale Supérieure, August 29-30 2011 (after Euroscipy)
The “Python in Neuroscience” workshop aims at gathering researchers who develop or use software tools in different branches of neuroscience in order to share ideas, concepts, tools and to foster collaborative projects based on the Python language. Main Topics ============ * tools for neural simulation, * electrophysiology data analysis, * data management and databasing in neuroimaging and neuroscience, * stimulus generation * neuroimaging data processing * workflows and pipelines for data processing * massive computation facilities for simulation and data analysis in neuroscience * visualization tools in neuroscience and neuroimaging Call for Contributions ======================== We are soliciting contributions that deal with the above topics using Python tools, including research projects and software presentations, with the hope of interesting a broader community, including e.g. neuroscience and neuroimaging. Important dates ================ Abstract submission deadline: June 1st, 2011 Final program: June 30th, 2011 Workshop: August 28-20, 2011 Submission guidelines * We solicit talk proposals in the form of a one-page long abstract. * The condition for acceptance is that the abstract fits well with the workshop theme. * Oral and poster presentations will be allocated depending on the number of contributions.
