Connectionists: Advances in computational motor control

[Reza Shadmehr]

Dear colleagues:

We would like to invite you to the fifth computational motor control
symposium at the Society for Neuroscience conference.  The symposium will
take place on Friday, Oct. 13 2006 at the Atlanta convention center.  The
purpose of the meeting is to highlight computational modeling and theories
in motor control.  This is an opportunity to meet and hear from some of the
bright minds in the field.

The program consists of two distinguished speakers and 12 contributed talks,
selected from the submitted abstracts.  This year the speakers are:

Mike Shadlen, University of Washington
Chris Atkeson, Carnegie Mellon University

We encourage you to consider submitting an abstract.  The abstracts will be
reviewed by a panel and ranked.  The top 10-12 abstracts will be selected
for oral presentation.  We encourage oral presentation by students who have
had a major role in the work described in the abstracts. More information is
available here:

The deadline for abstract submission is September 1.  Abstracts should in a
single PDF file, and should be no more than two pages in length, including
figures and references.

With our best wishes,

Reza Shadmehr and Emo Todorov
