Brainhack Ghent 2018

University of Ghent, Ghent, Belgium

[APOLOGIES FOR DOUBLE POSTING]

Dear all,

On 7-8th May 2018, the second edition of Brainhack Ghent will take place at
the university of Ghent (FPPW, Henri Dunantlaan 2, 9000 Ghent), as part of
the Brainhack Global event (May 2-6). During this two-day event, dedicated
to students and PhD students, we will work in teams on neuroscience-related
projects.

The aim of the event is to collaborate on projects, meet new researchers,
make new friendships in academia, learn, share the knowledge on data mining
and brain research, but also promote open science in the spirit of the
whole Brainhack community (Craddock et al., 2016)
<https://gigascience.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13742-016-0121-x>.

You can now register for Brainhack Ghent 2018 by going to
https://brainhackghent.github.io/. At this website, you can also submit a
project which will be realised during the two-day event. Projects can be
side projects, projects you were always interested in, but never had time
to work on, new ideas you want to explore…

In order to submit your project, proceed to the ‘project submission’
section, where you can specify the project author, a project title, and a
short project outline specifying some scientific context and concrete
goals. Of course, you’re always welcome to provide that extra bit of
information to help your fellow Brainhackers in their project selection
process! For example, you can provide 1-3 key papers related to the
project, some requirements (e.g. certain programming skills) for taking
part in the project, skills and competences that can be learned in the
project...

If you have questions about the feasibility/added value/… of a project you
want to submit, do not hesitate to contact us (brainhackghent2018 at gmail.com).
We will provide you with feedback as soon as possible!

If you prefer to prepare a tutorial in addition to/ instead of submitting a
project, you are certainly welcome to contact us as well!

We hope to hear from you soon, and please feel free to forward this message
to other colleagues whom might be interested!!

Best,

The Organization Committee of BrainHack Ghent 2018
