Neuroscience histology, animal behaviour and big image data workshops. London Aug 11-15. No cost, travel stipends available

We’re pleased to announce the first Neuroinformatics Unit Open Software Week at the Sainsbury Wellcome Centre in London this August 11-15.

This event will bring together researchers, developers, and users of open-source neuroscience software for some hands-on training, community-building and hacking. There will be three main tracks:

  • Animals in motion: using open-source tools to track and analyse animal motion from video footage
  • BrainGlobe: using the BrainGlobe ecosystem of computational neuroanatomy tools to analyse whole-brain microscopy datasets
  • Big Imaging Data: bridging technical gaps and communities to process and analyse large 3D imaging datasets with open-source tools

There will also be a series of satellite events:

  • Introduction to Python
  • Alternative research careers clinic
  • Collaborative coding with Git
  • Hackday

The event is free to all and we will be offering a limited number of travel stipends.

More details and registration on our website. Please share with anyone who may be interested.

We’ve received additional funding for this, so we expect to be able to fully fund the travel for most participants outside of London.

Hello,
Is this opportunity still open?

Hi @KAHLI_Fadila, unfortunately applications are now closed.
