6th International IEEE EMBS Conference on Neural Engineering, Nov 3-6, 2013, San Diego, CA

主要研究者：Metin AkayProposal ID：1301560神经工程是一门新兴的学科，它结合了多个工程学科，包括电子和光子技术，计算机科学，物理学，化学，数学与细胞，分子，认知和行为神经科学，以了解神经系统生物学的组织原理和潜在机制，以及自然界神经系统的行为动力学和复杂性。为了突出这一新兴学科，第六届国际IEEE EMBS神经工程会议将于2013年11月3日至11月6日在加利福尼亚州圣地亚哥举行。本次会议的目的是突出神经和认知工程，一个新兴领域的桥梁分子，细胞，系统，认知和行为神经科学与工程，物理，化学，数学和计算机科学。我们坚信，神经工程会议将进一步促进神经科学家、化学家、工程师、计算机科学家和数学家之间的神经工程研究和教育。除了主题演讲，全体会议，平台和海报会议，我们还将有一个小组，专注于在神经工程的快速发展，跨学科领域的职业生涯的挑战，从作为团队的一部分被雇用并找到令人兴奋的新研究机会，到成为团队领导者以及在组织团队和选择成员时需要寻找什么。将讨论国际和美国境内的研究生学习和研究的选择，以及国际研究人员和学生之间合作的潜力。

PI: Metin AkayProposal ID: 1301560Neural engineering is an emerging discipline that combines multiple engineering disciplines, including electronic and photonic technologies, computer science, physics, chemistry, mathematics with cellular, molecular, cognitive and behavioral neuroscience to understand the organizational principles and underlying mechanisms of the biology of neural systems and the behavioral dynamics and complexity of neural systems in nature. To highlight this emerging discipline, the 6th International IEEE EMBS Conference on Neural Engineering will be held in San Diego, CA from November 3 through November 6, 2013.Intellectual Merits: The objective of this conference is to highlight progress in Neural and Cognitive Engineering, an emerging field bridging molecular, cellular, systems, cognitive and behavioral neuroscience with engineering, physics, chemistry, mathematics and computer science. We strongly believe that the neural engineering conference further stimulates neural engineering research and education among neuroscientists, chemists, engineers, computer scientists and mathematicians.Broader Impact: In addition to the keynote, plenary, platform and poster sessions, we will also have a panel to focus on the challenges of making a career in the rapidly growing, interdisciplinary fields of neural engineering, from being hired as part of a team and findingexciting new research opportunities, to becoming a team leader and what to look for when organizing that team and choosing its members. Options will be discussed for graduate studies and research both internationally and within the U.S., as well as the potential for collaboration among researchers and students internationally.
