- A limited number of Cosyne 2005 participants were invited to submit papers for a special issue of Nature Neuroscience.
Cosyne provides an inclusive forum for the exchange of experimental and theoretical approaches to problems in systems neuroscience. The meeting is expected to draw about 300-400 researchers from a wide variety of disciplines.
The first meeting, Cosyne04, held at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory in Spring, 2004, drew over 350 participants. The second meeting, Cosyne05, held in Salt Lake City, Utah, in Spring, 2005, drew over 400 participants. Those meetings, in turn, evolved from the smaller, invitation-only NIC workshops held since 1996. Cosyne topics include but are not limited to: information theory; neural coding; natural scene statistics; dendritic computation; neural basis of persistent activity; nonlinear receptive field mapping; representations of time and sequence; reward systems; synaptic plasticity; map formation and plasticity; population coding; attention; computation with spiking networks.
