Information
The AIstroSight team, Inria Lyon, is organizing a workshop on September 26th-27th 2024 entitled "Linking brain structure & function at the nanoscale: an interdisciplinary workshop".
The brain is composed of various specialized cells, characterized by complex, nanoscopic shapes. Recent technical advances such as cryo- and volume electron microscopy have enabled reconstructing cells and organelles at unprecedented spatial resolution, paving the way for new discoveries on cell structure-function coupling at the subcellular level.
This interdisciplinary workshop aims to bring together experts from diverse fields who contribute to improving our understanding of the nanoscale landscape of the nervous system and its impact on brain function, from electron microscopy to image analysis, machine learning, deep learning, and computational modeling.
Invited speakers:
- Carles Bosch, The Francis Crick Institute, England
- Corrado Cali, Neuroscience Institute Cavalieri Ottolenghi, Italy
- Michael Chirillo, University of Texas, USA
- Audrey Denizot, Inria, France
- Erik De Schutter, Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology, Japan
- Christel Genoud, Université de Lausanne, Switzerland
- Daniel Keller, Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, Switzerland
- Constantin Pape, University of Göttingen, Germany
- Karin Pernet-Gallay, Université Grenoble Alpes, France
- Padmini Rangamani, University of California San Diego, USA
- Chris Salmon, McGill University, Canada
Venue: The workshop will be held in hybrid format, either at the Amphi Neuro, Hôpital Pierre Wertheimer, Bron, France ; or online.
Registration is free but mandatory.
Registration dates: 29/08/2024 - 24/09/2024
Please note that on-site registration is limited to 40 people. However, there is no limit to the number of online participants. Link to the videoconference will be emailed to confirmed participants, along with a link to an online discussion platform that will facilitate interaction between online and on-site participants.
This event is sponsored by Inria, Société des Neurosciences, French Glial Cell Club, Institut Pierre Wertheimer
and Hospices Civils de Lyon.
