Systems Neuroscience Seminar / Journal Club 2021-2022

Organizers

Prof. Nachum Ulanovsky, Gily Ginosar and Pritish Patil

Aim

Our aim is to keep up-to-date with new and exciting papers in Systems Neuroscience, published in high impact journals !

Participants

The Journal Club welcomes all students, postdocs and faculty members wishing to discuss recent innovative research in the field of Systems Neuroscience.

Where and When

We will meet every Monday at 14:00, using Zoom - an invitation for each meeting will be sent every week by mail.

Below is the list of available dates. Students and faculty members interested in presenting a paper at the Journal Club should send their choice of date to Gily Ginosar (gilyginosar@gmail.com) or to Pritish Patil (iampritishpatil2@gmail.com).
