We are happy to announce a call for applications to participate in the first installment of the Neurohackweek summer school for neuroimaging and data science.
This 5 day hands-on workshop, held at the University of Washington eScience Institute in Seattle, will focus on technologies used to analyze human neuroimaging data, on methods used to extract information from large datasets of publicly available data (such as the Human Connectome Project, Open fMRI, etc.), and on tools for making neuroimaging research open and reproducible. Morning sessions will be devoted to lectures and tutorials, and afternoon sessions will be devoted to participant-directed activities: guided work on team projects, hackathon sessions, and breakout sessions on topics of interest. For more details, see: http://neurohackweek.github.io/ We are now accepting applications from researchers in different stages of their career (graduate students, postdocs, faculty, and research scientists) to participate at: http://escience.washington.edu/neurohackweek2016-application Accepted applicants will be asked to pay a fee of $200 upon final registration. This fee will include participation in the course, accommodation in the UW dorms, and two meals a day (breakfast and lunch), for the duration of the course. A limited number of fee waivers and travel grants will be available. We encourage students with financial need and students from groups that are underrepresented in neuroimaging and data science to apply for these grants (email applications to: aro...@uw.edu) Important dates: April 18th: Deadline for applications to participate May 6th: Notification of acceptance June 1st: Final registration deadline On behalf of the instructors, Ariel Rokem, UW eScience Tal Yarkoni, UT Austin
