[Yaroslav Halchenko]

Dear Users and Developers of NeuroDebian,

Since it is of relevance and we are planing to participate as well, we
decided to share the announcement of upcoming

Python in Neuroscience satellite of EuroSciPy 2011
http://www.euroscipy.org/card/neurosciences_2011
Paris, Ecole Normale Supérieure, August 29-30 2011

  The “Python in Neuroscience” workshop aims at gathering researchers who
  develop software tools in different branches of neuroscience in order to share
  ideas, concepts, tools and to foster collaborative projects based on Python
  language.

Abstract submission deadline: June 1st, 2011

Main Topics
  * tools for neural simulation
  * electrophysiology data analysis
  * data management and databasing in neuroimaging and neuroscience
  * stimulus generation
  * neuroimaging data processing
  * workflows and pipelines for data processing
  * massive computation facilities for simulation and data analysis in 
    neuroscience
  * visualization tools in neuroscience and neuroimaging

Call for Contributions

  We are soliciting contributions that deal with the above topics using 
  Python tools, including research projects and software presentations, with the
  hope of interesting a broader community, including e.g. neuroscience and
  neuroimaging.

Important dates
  Abstract submission opens: May 1st, 2011
  Abstract submission deadline: June 1st, 2011
  Final program:  June 30th, 2011
  Registration: June 1st, 2011 -- August 15th, 2011
