> Deadline for submissions: 22 of February 2015 
> This issue will examine the basis and controversial issues of Electrophysiological Source Imaging (ESI), based on the workshop on the same topic.
> ESI has become acknowledged as one of the modalities of Neuroimaging, yet there remains heated debate about the physical, physiological basis of this technique as well as about the best ways to obtain tomographic images of activation and connectivity. This issue will contribute to resolve some of these issues and perhaps ignite others.
> The Issue will consist of:
> a)       An editorial summarizing the state of the field and an overview of the contributed papers.
> b)       A paper describing the materials and methods of the data that is common to all the workshop and that will become public domain
> c)       A series of papers on the topic of the workshop. These will, at a minimum, analyze the simulations and at least one experimental dataset
> d)       When appropriate some papers will have comments and commentaries as decided by the editors.
> Manuscripts from registrants who have analyzed at least the simulated data set and one real data set should contact the organizers at:

> Important points for all participants
> 
> 1.       Please register and put some points you want people to think about up in the forum after you have registered. You now may upload pdfs.
> 
> 2.       Please indicate which of the question you want addressed at the conference (see the website for this) and later reflected in the special issue. Some questions submitted to date are:
> 
> a.       Monopoles or dipoles?
> 
> b.       Calculate best reference or just get rid of it?
> 
> c.        How to measure EEG connectivity?
> 
> d.       Neural Field theory: impact on ESI?
> 
> e.       Network indices: fad or fact?
> 
> f.         Deep sources with ESI alone?
> 
> 3.       Check out the data that is being put up. This is being updated regularly and we hope to have data standardized in EEGLAB format soon. Thanks to Scott Makeig and Arno Delorme for this!
> 
> 4.       We hope to adhere to the principles of Reproducible Research and accompany the special issue with both data and EEGLAB compatible plugins.

> For offsite participants
> 
> 1.       For those of you that will be not be at the conference make sure that you check out the already growing discussions on the forum and add to them.
> 
> 2.       If you wish you and send in a statement to be discussed which will be read by one of us. Paul Nunez has already submitted a white paper draft that will be read in at the meeting.

> Important points for onsite participants
> 
> 1.       Make your visa application to China are all set. Any doubt about this or your travel arrangements please contact Dr. Daqing Guo (dqguo at uestc.edu.cn)
> 
> 2.       Be prepared for a short 15 minute presentation of points for discussion. The rest of the time will be for discussion.
> 
> 3.      It would be good if you put some points you want people to think about up in the forum after you have registered.
