DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Many of the most important achievements over the last decade in Neuroscience have been dependent on the development of new empirical methods, driven by interdisciplinary collaborations. Of particular significance has been the development and application of techniques for imaging brain structure and function. We propose to hold a conference on "Imaging the Brain: Neurons, Networks and Behavior" at New York University on September 5-7, 2003. This conference will focus on how the use of brain imaging techniques is leading to a deeper understanding of human behavior, perception, cognition, and emotion in terms of the detailed biophysical, cellular, and molecular mechanisms of brain function. The conference will include a diverse group of research presentations on the use of imaging to study the brain at scales ranging from cortical systems to synapses. We propose to have an opening address by Marcus Raichle, following by four sessions: Functional organization of sensory systems, (Amiram Grinvald, David Van Essen, Brian Wandell, Leslie Ungerleider); Frontotemporal interactions in memory (Eleanor Maguire, Anthony Wagner, Mark D'Esposito, Randall Mclntosh); Activity-dependent functional connectivity (Karel Svoboda, Kimberley MacAIlister, Venkatesh Murthy, F Kimura); Technological innovations (Richard Buxton, Mark Schnitzer, Peter Basser, Russell Jacobs, Daniel Silverman, Wim Vanduffel). Each session will be followed by a panel discussion/debate. The conference will be advertised broadly in the neuroscience community, while focusing specifically on institutions on the east coast and the NYC area. Prior to the meeting dates, we will make available on the Internet a publication of each speaker's presentation, with included graphics. We also propose to videotape the talks and discussions/debates and make them available for viewing on the Internet. Past participants of the Summer Undergraduate Research Program, sponsored by the Center for Neural Science at NYU over the past 10 years, will be invited to attend this Symposium. Minorities and women who accept this invitation will be provided with a travel stipend.

描述（由申请人提供）：在过去十年中，神经科学中许多最重要的成就都依赖于跨学科合作推动的新经验方法的发展。特别重要的是脑结构和功能成像技术的发展和应用。我们建议于2003年9月5-7日在纽约大学举行一次关于“脑成像：神经元、网络和行为”的会议。本次会议将重点讨论如何使用脑成像技术导致人类行为，感知，认知和情感方面的详细生物物理，细胞和分子机制的大脑功能更深入的了解。会议将包括一组关于使用成像技术研究大脑的各种研究报告，范围从皮层系统到突触。我们建议由Marcus Raichle致开幕词，然后是四个会议：感觉系统的功能组织，（Amiram Grinvald，大卫货车埃森，布赖恩Wandell，莱斯利Ungerleider）;记忆中的额颞相互作用（Eleanor Maguire，Anthony瓦格纳，Mark D 'Esposito，Randall Mclntosh）;活动依赖性功能连接（Karel Svoboda，金伯利MacAIlister，Venkatesh Murthy，F Kimura）;技术创新（Richard Buxton，Mark Schnitzer，Peter Basser，Russell Jacobs，丹尼尔西尔弗曼，Wim Vanduelt）。每次会议之后将举行小组讨论/辩论。会议将在神经科学界广泛宣传，同时特别关注东海岸和纽约地区的机构。在会议日期之前，我们将在互联网上提供每位发言者的发言稿，并附有图表。我们亦建议把讲座和讨论/辩论录下来，并在互联网上播放。过去10年来由纽约大学神经科学中心赞助的暑期本科生研究计划的参与者将被邀请参加本次研讨会。接受邀请的少数民族和妇女将获得旅行津贴。
