Support for Annual Computation and Neural Systems Meetings, Monterey, CA, July 11-15, 1995

该奖项为计算和神经系统年度会议提供三年的支持。这次会议汇集了实验和理论神经生物学家，以及对理解生物神经系统如何计算感兴趣的工程师、计算机科学家、认知科学家、物理学家和数学家。同样的重点放在实验，基于模型和更多的理论方法来理解神经生物学计算。演讲者既有资深科学家，也有年轻科学家。这次会议是向神经科学领域介绍新的计算技术和在这个相对较新的高度跨学科领域形成新的合作的重要场所。该奖项提供博士后、研究生和青年教师的旅费，但不提供资助。在这一领域产生新理论的是年轻的新科学家们的创造力。

9512763 Bower This award provides three years of support for the annual Computation and Neural Systems meeting. The meeting brings together experimental and theoretical neurobiologists along with engineers, computer scientists, cognitive scientists, physicists and mathematicians interested in understanding how biological neural systems compute. Equal emphasis is placed on experimental, model-based and more theoretical approaches to understanding neurobiological computation. Speakers include both senior scientists as well as young scientists. This meeting is an important venue for introducing new computational techniques to the neuroscience community and for the formation of new collaboration in this relatively new highly interdisciplinary field. This award provides travel costs of post-doctoral fellows, graduate students and young faculty without grant support. It is the creative energy of new young scientists that will generate new theory in this field.
