2nd Monash Brain Function Workshop --- Multi-modal approaches to understand
brain functions

Date: Dec 14 (Mon) 2015, 8:50 to 17:00

Venue: Monash Biomedical Imaging facility

Overview

The goal of this workshop is to offer an opportunity for neuroscientists
from different backgrounds to interact and exchange ideas. Specifically, we
encourage participation of neuroscientists who are interested in
understanding neural systems involved in perception and behaviour, and
those who combine multiple methodologies, such as electrophysiology,
advanced signal processing, computational modelling and cognitive
neuroscience.

Note that from Tuesday (Dec 15) the SCiNDU workshop will take place in
Brisbane; the Monday workshop will end in time to catch flights from
Melbourne to Brisbane.

Registration: $50 AUD ($25 AUD for students & postdocs or those who are
affiliated with ARC Centre of Excellence for Integrative Brain Function)

- Deadline for poster abstracts and early registration: To be announced

- Registration - [to be opened soon!]

Organizers: Nao Tsuchiya, Nic Price, Alex Fornito, Jeroen van Boxtel, Gary
Egan (Monash University)
