Multimodal Neuroimaging summer workshop Posted By: David Kennedy - Dec 2, 2008Tool/Resource: Conferences, Workshops and Meetings June 22 - July 31, 2009: The Multimodal Neuroimaging Training Program, coordinated by the University of Pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon University, is hosting its annual 6-week summer workshop, which will provide training in multiple imaging modalities, MRI/DTI, functional MRI, PET, MEG/EEG, and optical imaging. This program is designed for advanced scientists (senior graduate students, medical students, post-doctoral fellows, and independent researchers) who are already engaged in neuroimaging work and are familiar with brain structure and function. Our philosophy is to build on the strengths of our trainees in one imaging modality in order to help them develop skills in new modalities and improve their ability to address important questions in modern neuroscience. Participants will learn the principles of multiple imaging modalities, and receive hands-on experience in one imaging modality, on how to acquire, process, and interpret imaging data. A multimodal neuroimaging symposium focusing on "Decision Making", will be organized. Participants in this workshop will receive a stipend of $2,500 to cover meals and other education-related expenses and be provided with housing. Participants will also receive funds to help defray the cost of travel and other related expenses. Apply for participation in the summer workshop by completing an on-line application via the website at http://www.mntp.pitt.edu/. Application deadline is January 30, 2009. Please note that funding is limited to 12 recipients.
