   CALL FOR PAPERS: Connectionist/neural models in medicine

The 14th Annual Symposium on Computer Applications in Medical
Care (Nov 4 - 7, 1990) will have sessions dealing with connectionist
modelling research relevant to biomedicine.  Previous papers
have included presentations of new learning methods, models
of portions of the nervous system of specific organisms,
methods for classification and diagnosis of medical disorders,
models of higher cortical functions and their disorders
(e.g., aphasia, dyslexia, dementia), and methods for device
control.  Papers on these and a much broader range of topics
are sought.  Manuscripts are due March 1, 1990.  For a copy
