[Neuro-2008-committee] Week of 15th to 19th

[Pontus Holm]

Dear Program Committee members,

 

In the week following the Program Committee meeting, we have had two
additional inputs. Firstly, Rob offered some suggestions regarding workshop
topic C (Political policy), and secondly, Erik and Anders suggested a final
version of title and speakers for workshop topic A (Future hardware
challenges to scientific computing). 

 

Do we consider the proposed keynote speakers list set? We hope to have a
list of invited and confirmed keynote speakers by Friday, so we need to
contact the candidates shortly.

 

Workshop leaders: In order to be able to print informative congress-posters
for the SfN meeting, we really need to have information on workshop topic
names and workshop participants as soon as possible. The deadline is set to
this Friday.

 

Time schedule:

 

On 12th October we will freeze the list of proposed keynote speakers, and
the list will be invited. So we hope to have finalized the keynote speakers
by about the 19th.    

 

By 19th, the workshop (and demotrack) organizers should provide: one
paragraph description of workshops – title – problem domain – list of 3
speakers – brief schedule speakers – poster invitees -and panel discussion. 

 

We will circulate this list, and collectively edit it during the week of
22th, so that by 26th we have provisional program, suitable for composing
announcement flyer for Neuroscience.

 

Cheers,

/Pontus
