[Eeglablist] 2008 ERP Boot Camp, Steve Luck, UC-Davis

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The ERP Boot Camp, an 11-day summer workshop on the ERP technique funded by
NIMH, will be held July 7-17 2008 at UC-Davis. It is intended for beginning
and intermediate ERP researchers, or people who are interested in getting
started in ERP research.  It is designed for both basic scientists and
clinical researchers.

 

The topics will include:

 

1) Where do ERPs come from? What do they mean?

2) ERP components

3) The design and interpretation of ERP experiments

4) EEG data acquisition

5) Filtering, artifact rejection, and artifact correction

6) Measuring and analyzing ERP components

7) ERP localization

8) Setting up and running an ERP lab

 

The Boot Camp consists of lectures on these topics, accompanied by
discussions of classic and contemporary ERP papers and guided lab
activities.  It is led by Steve Luck, and the faculty includes many
distinguished ERP researchers from UC Davis and other universities.

 

Participants at previous Boot Camps have come from around the world and have
ranged from beginning graduate students to full professors. They have
included psychologists, neuroscientists, psychiatrists, neurologists, and
speech pathologists. However, predoctoral students should not apply unless
they will have had at least 6 months of intensive ERP experience before
attending the Boot Camp.

 

We highly encourage the participation of individuals from underrepresented
groups.

 

Funding is available from NIMH to defray some or all of the costs of
attending the Boot Camp, but is limited to U.S. citizens and permanent
residents.  International participants are encouraged to apply, but they
must obtain their own funding.

 

For more information about the Boot Camp and the application procedures, see

Applications are due on March 31, 2008.
