This workshop took place at the Hamner Conference Center, 15 T.W. Alexander Dr., Research Triangle Park, NC<\/p>\n
The Opening Workshop for this program was held on Monday- Friday, August 17 – 21, 2015. The Workshop provided an overview of the core topics relevant to the CCNS program, which is devoted to the development of methodological, theoretical, and computational treatments of high-dimensional mathematical and statistical models with applications in computational neuroscience. For a more detailed description of the topics to be covered, see the CCNS homepage<\/a>.<\/p>\n On Monday, August 17 there were five overview lectures by leading researchers in computational neuroscience. From Tuesday to Thursday, invited speakers addressed additional issues associated with spike train data analysis, Big data and research directions in the NIH BRAIN initiative, imaging genetics, and neuroimaging data analysis. A poster session and reception took place on Tuesday, August 18.<\/p>\n On Thursday August 20, Working Groups were introduced, centering on problems and research directions identified in the Workshop. These groups will meet weekly over the course of the program, with the initial meetings held on Friday August 21.<\/p>\n Clinical Brain Imaging<\/strong> Computational Approaches to Large-scale Inverse Problems with Applications to Neuroscience<\/strong> Understanding Neuromechanical Processes in Locomotion with Physical Modeling and Network Analysis<\/strong> Mathematical and Statistical Approaches to Modeling Brain Networks: circuits and systems<\/strong> Theory of neural networks: structure and dynamics<\/strong> Acquisition, Reconstruction, and Processing of MRI Data<\/strong> Imaging Genetics<\/strong> Structural Connectivity<\/strong> Functional Imaging Methods and Functional Connectivity<\/strong> Big Data Integration in Neuroimaging<\/strong> Analysis of Optical Imaging Data<\/strong> Login:<\/strong> https:\/\/sakai.duke.edu\/sakai-login-tool\/container<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0(Instructions to access a Working Group<\/a>)<\/p>\n Additional information on each group can be found at\u00a0Working Groups<\/a>.<\/p>\n Questions:<\/strong>\u00a0email CCNS@samsi.info<\/a><\/p>\n Participant List<\/a> Monday, August 17, 2015CCNS Working Groups<\/h2>\n
