The workshop Statistical Analysis of Neural Data (SAND6) is planned for May 31-June 2, 2012 at the Center for the Neural Basis of Cognition, run jointly by Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh.SAND6 will bring together neurophysiologists, statisticians, physicists, and computer scientists who are interested in quantitative analysis of neuronal data. There will be 5 scientific sessions, at which 8 keynote investigators and 16 junior investigators will speak. There will also be a poster session. Authors will be encouraged to submit papers to the Journal of Computational Neuroscience. SAND6 is the sixth workshop in a series that began in 2002. The workshops are held in even years during the spring at the Center for the Neural Basis of Cognition, run jointly by Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh. The objectives of the workshop are to define important problems in neuronal data analysis and useful strategies for attacking them; foster communication between experimental neuroscientists and those trained in statistical and computational methods; and provide further dissemination of the findings presented at the workshop via a set of peer-reviewed articles. Secondary objectives are to encourage young researchers, including graduate students, to present their work; expose young researchers to important challenges and opportunities in this interdisciplinary domain, while providing a small meeting atmosphere to facilitate the interaction of young researchers with senior colleagues; and include as participants women, under-represented minorities and persons with disabilities who might benefit from the small workshop environment.

神经数据统计分析(SAND6)研讨会计划于2012年5月31日至6月2日在卡内基梅隆大学和匹兹堡大学联合举办的神经认知基础中心举行。SAND6将汇集对神经元数据定量分析感兴趣的神经生理学家、统计学家、物理学家和计算机科学家。将有5次科学会议，8名主旨调查人员和16名初级调查人员将在会上发言。还将有一个海报展示环节。作者将被鼓励向《计算神经科学杂志》提交论文。SAND6是2002年开始的一系列讲习班中的第六期。研讨会每年春季在认知神经基础中心举行，该中心由卡内基梅隆大学和匹兹堡大学联合举办。讲习班的目标是确定神经元数据分析中的重要问题和解决这些问题的有用战略；促进实验神经科学家与那些接受过统计和计算方法培训的科学家之间的交流；并通过一系列同行评议的文章进一步传播在讲习班上提出的研究结果。次要目标是鼓励青年研究人员，包括研究生介绍他们的工作；使青年研究人员接触到这一跨学科领域的重要挑战和机遇，同时提供一个小型会议氛围，促进青年研究人员与资深同事的互动；并让妇女、任职人数不足的少数群体和可能从小讲习班环境中受益的残疾人作为参与者。
