The meeting will kick off with a day of tutorials and an evening welcome reception on July 24th. The main meeting of CNS*2010 will take place from Sunday July 25th-Wednesday July 28th, including a special Symposium, "Twenty years of computational success", on the afternoons of July 26th-27th. These events will be followed by two days of workshops on July 29-30th (Thursday-Friday). The main meeting will be held in the historic Sheraton Gunter Hotel in central San Antonio, one block from San Antonio's Famous River Walk. San Antonio is home to several universities including the University of Texas Health Science Center - San Antonio and the University of Texas San Antonio, which are both sponsoring CNS*2010. As is traditional, the CNS banquet will be an interesting and culturally themed event, hosted at Sundance Ranch on July 28th. Submissions can include experimental, model-based, as well as more abstract theoretical approaches to understanding neurobiological computation. We especially encourage research that mixes experimental and theoretical studies. We also accept papers that describe new technical approaches to theoretical and experimental issues in computational neuroscience or relevant software packages. INVITED SPEAKERS: Miguel Nicolelis, Duke University, USA, Frontiers of Computational Neuroscience Lecturer Vivian Mushahwar, University of Alberta, Canada Jonathan Wolpaw, Wadsworth Center and SUNY, USA ABSTRACT SUBMISSION: Submissions to the meeting will take the form of a formatted abstract. Submission instructions and submission website are at http://www.cnsorg.org/2010/submission.shtml. Authors wanting an oral presentation are required to also submit a 1-3-page summary (for the OCNS reviewers only) describing the nature, scope and main results of the work in more detail. The summaries will be reviewed to construct the oral program. All submissions will be acknowledged by e-mail. THE REVIEW PROCESS: Submissions will be judged and accepted for the meeting based on clarity, substance and appropriateness for the meeting. It is particularly important that the biological relevance of the research be made clear. OCNS strongly believes in the open exchange of ideas and rejections are usually based on absence of biological relevance (e.g., pure machine learning). We will notify authors of abstract acceptance by April 16, 2010. Submissions to be considered for oral presentation will be reviewed by two independent referees and results of the review process will be used to construct the oral program. In addition to perceived quality and significance, the novelty of the research and the diversity and coherence of the overall program will be considerations for selection as an oral presentation. We particularly encourage women and underrepresented minorities to apply for an oral presentation. To ensure diversity, those who have given talks in the recent past will not be selected and multiple oral presentations from the same lab will be discouraged. Most oral presentations will be 20 minutes in length, but a few papers will be selected for longer "featured oral" presentations. All accepted papers not selected for oral talks may be presented during the poster sessions. Authors will be notified of the presentation format of their papers by the end of April. OPEN ACCESS, CITABLE ABSTRACT PUBLICATION: The formatted abstracts will again be published as a Supplement to the online journal BMC Neuroscience. The supplement is citable, indexed by PubMed, and open access. At least one author must register for CNS*2010 by the early registration deadline of May 15, 2010 for the abstract to be published and included in the program book. Last year's abstracts are available at the URLs: --http://www.cnsorg.org/meetings/archives/CNS2009.shtml --http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2202/10?issue=S. AWARDS: Limited number of travel grant awards, based on abstract review, will be available to students. See instructions for requesting travel awards at www.cnsorg.org. Recipients of travel grants will be notified by May 5, 2010. Student posters presented at CNS*2010 will also be judged for cash prizes awarded at the meeting. Please check www.cnsorg.org periodically for announcement of additional categories of awards for postdoctoral fellows.

The University of Eastern Finland seeks to be an internationally recognised research and teaching university, which is among the top three most significant universities in Finland and among the leading 200 universities in the world. The inverse problems group (IPG) at the Department of Physics and Mathematics of the new university (Kuopio campus) is affiliated with the Center of Excellence in Inverse Problems Research (Academy of Finland). The IPG is led by Prof. Jari P. Kaipio, and it consists currently of 10 senior and postdoc researchers and 8 PhD students. The group will hire 3- 5 new doctoral students in 2010. All PhD projects are related to scientific computing, either to the stable forward, or the unstable inverse problems. With all projects, part of the work is to be carried out while visiting one or several of the international collaborators. Furthermore, with most projects, the starting times are negotiable, and the style and contribution can be adjusted somewhat to match the students' strengths. We invite prospective candidates (persons with a relevant MSc degree or students graduating in the near future) to apply for one or several of the following projects 1. Stochastic boundary models for inverse problems induced by PDEs 2. Computational methods for thermal tomography 3. Development of advanced modelling for optical imaging of the brain 4. Electrical capacitance tomography imaging of concrete 5. Optimal control in geophysical tomographic problems 6. Computational methods for full-wave inversion The applicants should send the following documents as pdf attachments to Dr. Arto Voutilainen (Arto.Voutilainen@uef.fi) by January 15, 2010: - Cover letter indicating which project(s) are addressed - Short CV - Scanned copies of relevant diplomas and transcripts of studies.
