Workshop on coherent behavior in neuronal networks

The workshop “Coherent Behavior in Neuronal Networks,” is to be held at
the Hotel Delta in Mallorca, Spain on October 17-20, 2007. The
scientific themes of the meeting include:
– the possible roles of globally coherent rhythms in the coordination
of distributed processing,
– the possible roles of coherence in stimulus discrimination,
– the interplay of coherence of neuronal network activity with
Hebbian plasticity, and
– the mechanisms and functional implications of repeated spiking
sequences.

Additionally, one of the goals of the meeting is to promote the
development and continuation of interdisciplinary collaborations in
these areas, as well as the exchange of ideas between participants
from a variety of backgrounds and career stages.
More information about the meeting, including a list of speakers, is
