2022 International Conference on Mathematical Neuroscience - Digital Edition (6th-8th July 2022)

The International Conference on Mathematical Neuroscience (ICMNS) is an
inter-disciplinary conference series, bringing together theoretical/computational neuroscientists and mathematicians. The conferences are aimed at scientists interested in using or developing mathematical techniques for neuroscience problems.

This is the 3rd Digital Edition of ICMNS. The conference will take place online  from 6th to 8th of July 2022. Registered participants will receive links to join the meeting in a booklet, which we plan to circulate a few hours prior to the conference.

ICMNS 2022 will happen on Zoom, where all participants will able to attend talks and hold discussions in breakout rooms. ICMNS 2022 will also be broadcasted live on our  ICMNS YouTube channel , where we will also upload all talks after the conference. Please subscribe to our channel to receive updates.

Registration

The conference is free of charge, but the programme and Zoom links to attend the event will only be sent to members of the ICMNS Digital mailing list.

  • If you are already registered on the mailing list, no further action is required.

Contributed micro-talks

Micro-talk sessions are one-hour sessions consisting of a sequence of very short introductions (2 minutes, 1 slide) by the presenters to their research, followed by an opportunity to chat with individual presenters about their research in breakout rooms.
