EIBIR Summer School on Imaging in Neurology

After the success of the EIBIR Winter School in 2010 (Viladrau/ES), the next course will take place in August 2011 in Dubrovnik. This time the focus will be on neuro-imaging. A particular ENCITE Lecture will be held during the school.

Date: 21—26 August 2011
Venue: Dubrovnik/HR

The EIBIR Summer School on Neurology Imaging is a mulitdisciplinary summer school, uniting about 50 young researchers coming from a variety of backgrounds. The high scientific level and the relaxed atmosphere invite a close and fruitful interaction between everybody present, both participants and staff.

TOPICS:
Imaging modalities (MR, PET, CT), quantitative image analysis, (open-source) tools for image analysis, neuro- and population imaging and image analysis in clinical practice, validation and open- source databases, atlases, applic ations in the clinic, small animals and clinical trials.

Draft Programme

TARGET GROUP:
The School is mainly addressed to second- and third-year students pursuing their graduate studies in this field within PhD programs of biomedical engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, physics, medical physics, and medicine. We therefore assume that participants have a basic understanding of biomedical imaging, both in terms of acquisition and image analysis and interpretation.

HOW TO APPLY:
Should you be interested in participating, please send your application as soon as possible to office@eibir.org by providing a motivation letter and your curriculum vitae, including contact details of one referee and those of your current main supervisor. Registration deadline is 25 March, 2011.
