[Neurobureau-hubs] Brain Hack and (Un)Conference 2012, BrainHack.org, and SFN - we need your help!

[Daniel Margulies]

Dear all,

Another update regarding the ongoing line-up of events for 2012.

Nathalie Regard has spearheaded the art at HBM for Beijing, and we met briefly
last Friday online to begin the discussion. Exciting things look to be
afoot, and it would be wonderful to have your involvement. Please let me
know if you'd like to be on the art at HBM planning committee, and we'll
include you in future meetings.

Also, we received responses for the other two committees, and the groups are
now as follows:

Unconference 2012 committee: Donald, Cameron, Pierre, Daniel.

Brainhack website committee: Maarten, Cameron, Pierre, Daniel.

Please let us know if you would like to be involved in either (it's not too
late!) and we'll add you on.

Yours in science,
Daniel
