Subject: [Comp-neuro] Abstract Deadline Extended to May 4: HIVE (Hyper
Interaction Viability Experiments) Workshop (Barcelona, June 2010)

The deadline for abstract submission has been extended to May 4, 2010.

We hereby invite contributions to this first public Hyper Interaction
Viability Experiments workshop (Barcelona, June 11th 2010).
Contributions must be of a high scientific level, and typically would
describe, attempt to understand, or engineer brain stimulation
phenomena as well as clinical applications.

Please visit HIVE2010 (http://www.hive-eu.org/hive2010/home) for more
information.

The HIVE project is an ongoing 4-year multidisciplinary European
project. The project is hosting an open workshop to all participants
working in this field in order to enhance discussion and include
presentations on the most current research. All researchers are kindly
asked to submit their latest research results to this workshop.

________________________________________________

The workshop is a dedicated satellite meeting to the international
Human Brain Mapping conference and will be held in Barcelona on Friday
June 11th, 2010.

This 1-day event will be held at Barcelona's CosmoCaixa Science Museum
and Starlab, on Friday June 11, 2010.

There will be 3 keynote speakers in addition to regular talks and posters:

   * Prof. Niels Birbaumer
   * Prof. Alvaro Pascual-Leone
   * Dr. Demetrios N. Velis, M.D.

Could computers someday interact directly with the human brain? The
vision of HIVE is that in the next 50 years we will witness the coming
of age of technologies for fluent brain-computer and computer-mediated
brain-to-brain interaction. While recent research has delivered
important breakthroughs in brain-to-computer transmission, little has
been achieved in the other direction––computer-controlled brain
stimulation. The goal of the workshop is to present research on a new
generation of powerful and controllable non-invasive brain stimulation
technologies. State-of-the-art presentations on current distribution
and multi-scale neuron current interaction modeling will be presented.
Results from stimulation experiments using tDCS, TMS, EEG and fMRI in
different scenarios are given in overview and original presentations.
Discussions during the workshop will lead to the design of multisite
transcranial current stimulation technologies using real time EEG
monitoring and feedback.

Given the fundamental role of interaction in human experience,
advances in this area can deliver breakthrough information society
technologies of great value in addition to advancing the
state-of-the-art in fundamental neuroscience research, neurology
diagnosis and therapy through this workshop.
