Founded in 2002, the Brain Connectivity Workshop (BCW) is an annual international meeting for in-depth discussions of all aspects of brain connectivity research. The 17th edition of this workshop, taking place at Stanford University (June 25-27, 2018), begins with an educational day followed by two days devoted to presentations and discussions in four domains: anatomy, physiology and neuroimaging, computational models of brain connectivity, and clinical problems in relation to connectivity in both psychiatry and neurology.

THE BIO-X FELLOWS SYMPOSIUM CELEBRATES OUR BIO-X FELLOWS AND THEIR RESEARCH ACCOMPLISHMENTS

Two Fellows will give presentations on their research and accomplishments in the Clark Center Auditorium, followed by a poster session.

JOIN US FOR OUR INTERDISCIPLINARY INITIATIVES SEED GRANTS PROGRAM SYMPOSIUM!
