When: May 4, 2016 - 8:00am - May 6, 2016 - 2:00pm

Workshop Organizers:

Registration for this workshop is currently closed.

This workshop will be held at SAMSI in RTP.

The transition workshop for the Computational Neuroscience program is an opportunity for the active working groups in the program to exchange results and share their perspectives on common issues. This workshop is focused on recent research progress that has been made in connection with the many research areas spanned by the CCNS program. Sessions of talks dedicated to each working group will feature presentations by active members. The workshop also seeks to facilitate planning for continuing collaborations on further research questions to extend beyond the period of the CCNS program.
