Hi everyone,
One final reminder to apply to the 2014 Nengo Summer School by Feb. 15th.
The school will run from June 8th to June 21st in Waterloo, Ontario.
Details below:

The Centre for Theoretical Neuroscience at the University of Waterloo is
inviting applications for an in-depth, two week summer school that will
teach participants how to use the Neural Engineering Framework and the
Nengo simulation package to build state-of-the-art cognitive and neural
models. Nengo has been used to build what is currently the world's largest
functional brain model, Spaun, and provides users with a versatile and
powerful environment for simulating cognitive and neural systems. We
welcome applications from all interested graduate students, research
associates, postdocs, professors, and industry professionals. No specific
training in the use of modelling software is required, but we encourage
applications from active researchers with a relevant background in
psychology, neuroscience, cognitive science, neuromorphic engineering,
robotics, or a related field. More information about Nengo, the
Neural Engineering Framework, and Spaun can be found at http://www.nengo.ca
