*Neuroinformatics Assembly 2024: Keynote announcement,*

*IP sessions, abstract submissions, & early bird registration*


The INCF Assembly <https://neuroinformatics.incf.org/> is a unique venue
where neuroscience standards developers, infrastructure providers, and
software developers have the opportunity to interact with the research
community to share the latest advancements in neuroinformatics.

For the first time since 2019, we're hosting Assembly in-person! Assembly
will run from Sep 23-25 in Austin, Texas, with training activities from Sep
26-27.

This year's theme is

Brain Meets AI: Pioneering the Future of Neuroinformatics.

Abstract submission <https://neuroinformatics.incf.org/abstract-submission>
and early bird registration <https://neuroinformatics.incf.org/register>
are open for INCF Neuroinformatics Assembly 2024
<https://neuroinformatics.incf.org/> - make sure to register before Jun 28
to get the early bird price!

Are you interested in presenting at Assembly 2024? We’re seeking 3
investigator presentations for each of the 4 main sessions at INCF
Neuroinformatics Assembly 2024:


   -

   FAIR neuroscience
   -

   Technologies for large-scale computation and team science
   -

   Applications of AI to neuroscience research
   -

   Closing the discovery loop and digital twins

Please submit your investigator presentation abstract via this link
<https://neuroinformatics.incf.org/abstract-submission>

no later than April 08, 2024.

Selected presenters will have their registration fee waived as a thank-you
for your contribution.

Note: You need to be signed in to submit an abstract, but you don’t need to
be an INCF member to create an account.

Keynote announcement!

Elisabeth Bik, PhD, Microbiome Digest

Microbiome specialist Elisabeth Bik is a Microbiome and Science Integrity
consultant. She can often be found discussing science papers on Twitter at
@MicrobiomDigest <https://twitter.com/MicrobiomDigest>, writing for her
blog ScienceIntegrityDigest <https://scienceintegritydigest.com/> or
searching the biomedical literature for inappropriately duplicated or
manipulated photographic images, plagiarized text, or poor study design and
data analysis. Bik’s work has been featured in Nature, Science, the New
York Times, Le Monde, Wall Street Journal, STAT News, and The Scientist.

Viktor Jirsa, PhD, Institut de Neurosciences des Systemès

Dr. Jirsa is one of the Lead Scientists in the Human Brain Project
<https://www.humanbrainproject.eu/> and The Virtual Brain
<https://www.thevirtualbrain.org/> and has published more than 150
scientific articles and book chapters, as well as co-edited several books
including the Handbook of Brain Connectivity
<https://www.amazon.ca/Handbook-Brain-Connectivity-Viktor-Jirsa/dp/3540714626>.
Dr. Jirsa has made notable contributions to the understanding of how
network structure constrains the emergence of functional dynamics using
methods from nonlinear dynamic system theory and computational
neuroscience.

Danilo Bzdok, MD, PhD, Mila - Quebec Artificial Intelligence Institute

Dr Bzdok currently serves as Associate Professor at McGill's Faculty of
Medicine and as Canada CIFAR AI Chair at Mila - Quebec Artificial
Intelligence Institute, Montreal, Canada, including cross-appointments at
the McConnell Brain Imaging Center, Montreal Neurological Institute, Ludmer
Centre for Neuroinformatics and Mental Health, and the School of Computer
Science at McGill University. His interdisciplinary research activity
centers on narrowing knowledge gaps in the brain basis of human-defining
types of thinking, with a special focus on the higher association cortex in
health and disease.
