AoN Brainhack Warsaw 2017
November 18-19, 2017

*— The call for proposals extended to 1st September 2017 — *

On the weekend of 18-19th November 2017, the first edition of *AoN
Brainhack* *Warsaw* will take place. During this two-day event dedicated to
students and PhD students, we will work in teams on neuroscience-related
projects. The aim of the event is to meet new, enthusiastic researchers,
make new friendships in academia, learn, share the knowledge on data mining
and brain research, but also promote open science in the spirit of the
whole Brainhack community (Craddock et al., 2016).

The venue and the exemplary projects are presented on our website:
*https://brainhackwarsaw.github.io/

Please note this Brainhack is a satellite event for the interdisciplinary
Aspects of Neuroscience conference which will take place on 24-26th
November 2017 in Warsaw. Participation in the conference is not mandatory
but we encourage to also consider this.
