Computational Approaches to Memory and Plasticity (CAMP @ Bangalore)
2014<http://www.ncbs.res.in/camp>
.
Website: http://www.ncbs.res.in/camp/
Venue: National Centre for Biological Sciences, Bangalore,
India<http://www.ncbs.res.in/>
 Dates: 28th June to 12th July, 2014
Organizer: Upinder Bhalla (NCBS, Bangalore,

CAMP @ Bangalore is a 15-day summer school on the theory and simulation of
learning, memory and plasticity in the brain. PhD students and post-docs
from theoretical and/or experimental backgrounds (physics, math,
neuroscience, engineering, etc.) are welcome. Familiarity with programming,
dynamical systems, and/or computational neuroscience is highly desirable.
Master's or Bachelor's degree students can apply if they have sufficient
background beyond course-work. The school will start with remedial
tutorials on neuroscience / math / programming and then work upwards from
sub-cellular electrical and chemical signaling in neurons, onward to
micro-circuits and networks, all with an emphasis on learning, memory and
plasticity.

Students worldwide are encouraged to apply online at
