COGNESTIC 2025Info Location Contact More Info Event Information
DescriptionJoin us in Cambridge for the two-week Cognitive Neuroimaging Skills Training In Cambridge (COGNESTIC) Summer School, designed to equip emerging researchers in cognitive neuroscience with cutting-edge techniques for open neuroimaging research. This immersive program focuses on MRI, fMRI, and EEG/MEG methodologies, ideal for those beginning or planning to initiate your own neuroimaging research projects. Because the emphasis of this course is on open, transparent and reproducible analysis, there is considerable programming and scripting involved. While we will provide videos on the theoretical background of neuroimaging analysis methods in advance, the focus of our workshops will be on demos and hands-on practice. COGNESTIC 2025 Registration Details: The registration fee for COGNESTIC 2025 is £950, which includes lunches, refreshments, and three exciting social events. Please note that accommodation and dinners are not included. We are pleased to offer a 50% discount for attendees from UNESCO-designated low and lower-middle-income countries. To express your interest in attending, please email [email protected] with the following information: • Current affiliation and status (e.g., PhD student, post-doc) • A brief description of your research interests and your motivation for attending COGNESTIC If selected, you will have until 31 March 2025 to pay the registration fee. After this date, the remaining places will be available on a first-paid, first-served basis. Cancellations made up to one month before the event are eligible for a refund. https://www.mrc-cbu.cam.ac.uk/events/cognestic-2025/
