Science of Information Summer School - Information in Neural Systems
The 2014 Center for Science of Information Summer School, will be hosted at the University of California, San Diego from Monday evening, August 4th to Friday noon, August 8th, 2014. The school provides a venue where doctoral and postdoctoral students can meet to learn from distinguished professors, and form friendships and collaborations. Advanced undergraduates and M.S. students are also welcome. This year the school will introduce several interdisciplinary life science topics connected with the emerging field of science of information. Students will present their own research via a poster session during the school. Interdisciplinary topics are encouraged. A professional development session on diversity & success will be offered with a panel of scientists including Robert Gray, (Professor Emeritus at Stanford University) Shannon Award winner, IEEE Centennial, and Millennium award winner. A separate, but concurrent, workshop for faculty will be held during afternoons of August 6-7. The topic is teaching a science of information style course or module.
