[Neuroinfo] Fwd: INCF and neuroinformatics at SfN 2013 - exhibits, demos, and social activities!

[Malin Sandström]

Dear colleagues,

(with apologies for cross-posting)

this year as usual, INCF will exhibit at SfN Neuroscience 2013 in San
Diego. You can find us in booth #4128, near many other neuroinformatics
exhibitors, where we will be available for questions on neuroscience data,
data sharing, standards, infrastructure and other neuroinformatics key
areas. We also host three days of demos of interesting tools and projects
(see full program below).

You are all invited to come by our booth to get updated on this year's
activities, to view a demo or two or to simply sit down in our (very comfy)
sofa for some combined networking and relaxation. Together with the
Neuroscience Information Framework (NIF) we also have a neuroinformatics
social on Sunday November 10 6:30-9:30 pm, at the Cat Eye Club near the
convention center. Light refreshments served, please remember to bring your
SfN badge!

An overview of INCF's activities at SfN can be found via our webpages on:
http://incf.org/community/sfn2013 You can also follow our live Twitter
updates during the event via twitter.com/INCForg.

Best regards,
Malin Sandström

The International Neuroinformatics Coordinating Facility (INCF) is an
international organization launched in 2005, following a proposal from the
Global Science Forum of the OECD to establish international coordination
and collaborative informatics infrastructure for neuroscience – and
currently has 17 member countries across North America, Europe, Australia
and Asia. INCF establishes and operates scientific programs to develop
standards for neuroscience data sharing, analysis, modeling and simulation
while coordinating an informatics infrastructure designed to enable the
integration of neuroscience data and knowledge worldwide and catalyze
insights into brain function in health and disease.
