Connectionists: NEURON Meeting and Parallellizing Network Models course deadline approaching

[Ted Carnevale]

There is still time to sign up for the 2010 NEURON Simulator Meeting
and/or the Course on Parallelizing Network Models with NEURON, but
you'll have to act quickly because registration closes on Friday,
February 26--just a week from tomorrow.

The NEURON Simulator Meeting will take place on March 22 and 23
at the University of Arizona in Tucson, AZ.  The agenda includes
talks, symposia, and workshops on topics that are listed here
https://www.neuron.yale.edu/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=1863
In addition, there will be special presentations by Michael Hines
on the following topics:
* NEURON + Python
* Parallel NEURON
* Multithreaded simulations

A couple of seats are still available for the Course on Parallelizing
Network Models with NEURON.  This course will run from March 24-26,
immediately following the NEURON Simulator Meeting.  It is intended
for individuals who have already developed their own network models
with NEURON that run on "serial" computers, which they now want to
port to parallel hardware. Each day will include a mix of didactic
presentations and discussions interspersed with hands-on coding
sessions in which participants put what they have learned to
practical use on their own problems.

on-line registration form, see
