About
Ever-improving brain data acquisition techniques across species, scales, and modalities, and the embracement of open science and collaboration globally, means that the past few years have seen an acceleration in data collection and quality. Ever-increasing dataset sizes coupled with rich molecular, whole body, behavioural, and clinical information, demand novel approaches that are capable of taming and synthesizing these complex and multimodal features. Placing the brain within a context of complex systems and network science is therefore critical to progress. Network Neuroscience has emerged as a transdisciplinary field that draws from and contributes to multiple areas of science in the ultimate quest to undertsand the brain.
Network Neuroscience 2024 will, for the 10th year running, provide an opportunity for participants with diverse backgrounds to present cutting-edge research and exchange ideas across disciplinary boundaries.
Call for Contributions
We invite contributions from all areas of network neuroscience, including but not limited to:
- Brain -omics networks
- Structural brain networks
- Functional brain networks
- Network theory, modeling and analysis
- Network communication and information flow
- Circuit dynamics
- Brain-behavior interactions
- Systems neuroscience
- Fundamental and clinical neuroscience applications
- Brain-body network science
- Classical and deep learning for brain networks
- Spatio-temporal brain network models
Submissions are now closed for oral contributions, but we are accepting poster presentations on a rolling basis. Submit your abstract in the format of a one-page pdf with one figure. Posters may be presented at both the satellite and at the main conference.
Note that you must register for NetSci to attend (there is an option to select only the satellite sessions and school) and the early bird registration deadline is April 8th.
Schedule - Coming Soon
Network Neuroscience 2024 will be held on Tuesday 18th June in Québec City as a satellite of the International School and Conference on Network Science (NetSci 2024).
Registration
Network Neuroscience is a satellite of the NetSci conference. You can register for Network Neuroscience through the NetSci website - select "Satellites and School Only" if you only wish to attend Network Neuroscience and other satellites. Please not that the early registration deadline is 8th April 2024.
