  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Aim of the course&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The course is intended to provide advanced Diploma/Masters and PhD students, as well as young researchers from the neurosciences with approaches for the analysis of electrophysiological data and the theoretical concepts behind them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The course includes various topics such as&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Neuron models and spike train statistics&lt;br /&gt;Point processes and correlation measures&lt;br /&gt;Systems and signals&lt;br /&gt;Local field potentials&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The course will consist of lectures in the morning and and matching exercises using Matlab and Mathematica. &lt;br /&gt;Experience with these software packages will be helpful but is not required for registration. The participants should have a basic understanding of scientific programming. &lt;br /&gt;This course is designated especially for advanced diploma/master-students and PhD-students (preferentially in their first year).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Organisation and teaching&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prof. Dr. Stefan Rotter, Bernstein Center Freiburg, University of Freiburg&lt;br /&gt;Prof. Dr. Sonja Gruen, Institute of Neuroscience and Medicine (INM-6), Computational and Systems Neuroscience, Research Center Juelich, &lt;br /&gt;Prof. Dr. Ulrich Egert, Biomicrotechnology, Department of Microsystems Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, University of Freiburg&lt;br /&gt;Prof. Dr. Ad Aertsen, Neurobiology &amp;amp; Biophysics, Faculty of Biology, University of Freiburg&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Application&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please apply by sending an email containing your CV and a meaningful letter of motivation to nwg-course@bcf.uni-freiburg.de.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The letter of motivation should refer to the following points:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reasons for wanting to take this course&lt;br /&gt;Background in mathematics&lt;br /&gt;Experience using Matlab / Python/ Mathematica&lt;br /&gt;Background in neuroscience&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The course is limited to 20 participants.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Course fees:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NWG members: 50 Euro&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;others: 125 Euro&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
