Novel optical technology for cardiac electrophysiology 2023 workshop (NOTICE Workshop 2023)

基于光学的心脏电生理学新方法(通知)是一个为期两天的免费活动，于4月20日和21日在格拉斯哥大学举行。基于光的记录和操作技术已经改变了对健康和病理条件下心脏电生理学的研究。NOTICE汇聚了英国、欧盟和北美心脏电生理学中新颖光学技术的主要支持者，讨论他们的研究解决的主要技术和生物物理问题。他们领域的专家将报告当前和不久的将来可能对心脏电生理学产生变革的光学技术，以及尖端应用及其产生的数据、分析和建模。在三次以挑战为主题的会议的介绍性演讲之后，三位演讲者将就听众的问题进行小组讨论，讨论未来的研究方向。这次研讨会的目的不仅是检查目前的成功，而且还讨论在这个令人兴奋和不断扩大的领域中正在进行的限制和机会。这次研讨会旨在吸引来自广泛背景和学科的研究人员交流他们独特的观点和角度，以解决光学工具构建中的最新研究问题，并开发专门用于回答心脏电生理学问题的工具。因此，被邀请的演讲者名单是从工程学、光学、生物物理学和生理学等广泛的专业知识库中挑选出来的，其中包括具体心脏成像方面的专家，以及可以应用于心脏成像的工具制造商和技术开发商。对于与会者，将有机会展示海报和/或闪光演讲，并参与小组讨论和网络/脱离会议。活动的一部分将面向博士生和早期职业研究人员，让他们就当前正在进行的旨在吸引合作倡议的研究问题进行简短演讲。

Novel optics-based approaches for cardiac electrophysiology (NOTICE) is a two half-day free event running on April 20th and 21st at the University of Glasgow. Research into cardiac electrophysiology under healthy and pathological conditions has been transformed by light-based recording and manipulation technology. NOTICE brings together the leading proponents of novel optical techniques in cardiac electrophysiology in the UK, the European Union and North America to discuss the major technical and biophysical questions their research addresses. Experts in their field will report on current and near-future enabling optical technologies that are likely to be transformative to electrophysiology in the heart as well as cutting-edge applications and their resulting data, analysis and modelling. After three introductory talks of challenge-themed sessions, the three speakers will lead a panel-like discussion on audience questions to discuss future research directions. This workshop aims to examine not just the current successes but also discuss ongoing limitations and opportunities in this exciting and expanding field.This workshop aims to attract researchers from a broad pool of backgrounds and disciplines to exchange their unique takes and angles to tackle state-of-the-art research questions in optical tool building and developed designed to specifically answer questions in cardiac electrophysiology. The list of invited speakers is therefore drawn from a wide pool of expertise, ranging from engineering, optics, biophysics, and physiology and contains experts in concrete cardiac imaging as well as tool builders and developers of techniques which could conceivably be applied to cardiac imaging. For attendees there will be an opportunity to present a poster and or flash talk and participate in panel discussions and networking/break away sessions. One session of the event will be geared towards PhD students and early career researchers allowing them to give a short talk about current ongoing research problems aimed at attracting collaborative initiatives.
