[Eeglablist] 2023 UC-Davis/SDSU 10-Day ERP Boot Camp Announcement

[Emily Kappenman]

The UC-Davis/SDSU ERP Boot Camp, a 10-day NIH-funded summer workshop on the
ERP technique, will be held July 31-August 9, 2023. This year’s workshop
will take place in San Diego, California. It is intended for individuals
who want to gain a deep understanding of the ERP technique, including both
basic scientists and clinical/translational researchers.



Topics will include:



   - Neural origins of ERPs
   - The design and interpretation of ERP experiments
   - EEG data acquisition
   - Filtering, artifact rejection, and artifact correction
   - Measuring and analyzing ERP components
   - Advanced methods, such as time-frequency analysis and multivariate
   pattern analysis
   - Setting up and running an ERP lab



The Boot Camp consists of lectures on these topics, accompanied by guided
discussions of ERP papers, activities, and individual consultations. It is
led by Steve Luck and Emily Kappenman, and the faculty includes many
distinguished ERP researchers from San Diego State University, UC-San
Diego, and other universities.



We focus on providing a deep understanding of the conceptual issues
involved in ERP research, not specific software packages. If you are
interested in getting hands-on data analysis experience, see the free
online book, Applied ERP Data Analysis (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://doi.org/10.18115/D5QG92__;!!Mih3wA!GgMtpSf5TTLbMNGwIkjHtayKA6u9_0vKojxGQG0MIIE24qN5jgMiKPFG8iI4BKnhR3c99T3JFcNmgkWyaOtfJxTVvK4qaa-IqA$ ).



Previous ERP Boot Camp participants have come from around the world and
have included graduate students, postdocs, research scientists, and
faculty. They have included psychologists, neuroscientists, psychiatrists,
neurologists, audiologists, linguists, and more. The ERP Boot Camp provides
a deep exploration of ERPs, so we require that graduate students and
postdocs have had at least one year of intensive ERP experience before
attending the Boot Camp (this requirement is waived for faculty-level
participants). We strongly encourage applications from individuals from
underrepresented groups and disadvantaged backgrounds (broadly defined; see
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://extramural-diversity.nih.gov/diversity-matters/disadvantaged-backgrounds__;!!Mih3wA!GgMtpSf5TTLbMNGwIkjHtayKA6u9_0vKojxGQG0MIIE24qN5jgMiKPFG8iI4BKnhR3c99T3JFcNmgkWyaOtfJxTVvK7630WzaQ$ 
).



All participants receive a scholarship that covers most or all of the costs
of attending the Boot Camp. There is no registration fee. We typically
accept 30-32 U.S. citizens and permanent residents, along with 3-5
participants who are not U.S. citizens or permanent residents.



*COVID Information*: We are currently planning to hold the 2023 Boot Camp
entirely in person (to maximize learning and networking). We will require
that everyone is fully vaccinated, and we will also implement any other
safety measures that are warranted at the time of the workshop.



Applications for the 2023 workshop are now being accepted. Applications are
due by April 1, 2023, and admissions decisions will be announced in early
May. For more information and the application form, see
