'Neural data analysis: learning from other disciplines' Workshop - 21st-23rd September, Newcastle University
The workshop will be very unusual as we aim to bring together scientists from a variety of areas who analyse complex data, with the aim of exploring whether their methods can be useful in neural data analyses.
BBSRC Challenges of visualising biological data, 16-17th November2010, Venue: TBC
BBSRC invites applications to attend a multi-disciplinary workshop exploring the challenges of visualising increasingly complex and large-scale biological datasets.
Neural Coding and Computation Workshop - 31st August 2010, Manchester
The aim of the workshop is to present cutting edge research on neural coding from a multidisciplinary perspective.
6th CARMEN Consortium Meeting
This is an important meeting as it will be one of the last opportunities to review new developments and project progress before the end of the current EPSRC funding. This meeting will be a chance to discuss opportunities for new projects allied to CARMEN.
Our latest recruit
At the beginning of February Rasmus Petersen took over from Stefano Panzeri as the CARMEN investigator at the University of Manchester. Read here to find out a bit more about our newest member of the Consortium.
Another New Recruit!
Just over a month after welcoming three new members to CARMEN, we've recruited another one, Jose Luis Vega. Jose has just joined Stuart Baker's group at Newcastle and will be working on WP5. Here he gives us a little information to introduce himself to the Consortium.
TalkScience Event: ‘Scientific Researchers and Web 2.0: Social NotWorking?’
On 24th September at 6pm in the British Library at St. Pancras, TalkScience are holding an event to question: ‘Scientific Researchers and Web 2.0: Social NotWorking?’
Complexity in the Brain Workshop
This inter-disciplinary workshop, supported by an EPSRC Bridging the Gap grant, aims to bring together a range of researchers interested in the generation and analysis of neuroscience data. The workshop takes place at the University of Strathclyde on Monday 22nd and Tuesday 23rd September.
New Recruits to CARMEN
This month sees three new project members join CARMEN. They've each given us a brief biography to introduce who they are, what they do, and, of course, how excited they are to be working with CARMEN!
CARMEN at Google and on YouTube!
Paul Watson gave an invited talk on CARMEN at the "Google Scalability Conference" in Seattle in July. He focussed on the design of the CARMEN CAIRN, describing how it is a generic "Science Cloud", populated with neuroscience data and services.
Project Progress Report
Every month we hold a teleconference where representatives from our 7 work packages report to one another on the progress of their work. In order to share this information with our consortium we have decided to publish the minutes on our website.
Web Services and Workflows Workshop: 31 July - 01 August 2008
Workshop enabling CARMEN consortium members to learn about the use of web services and workflows. Registration now open.
Why are Computational Neuroscience and Systems Biology so Separate?
"Despite similar computational approaches, there is surprisingly little interaction between the computational neuroscience and the systems biology research communities. In this review I reconstruct the history of the two disciplines and show that this may explain why they grew up apart." - Erik De Schutter
New CARMEN Website Live
We are pleased to announce that the new CARMEN website went live today, only two months later than intended. The website allows consortium members to contribute news items, events and blog posts, and to upload their CARMEN related publications.
