[Eeglablist] 2024 Bonsai Developer Conference

[Joaquin Rapela]

Hello,

We are excited to invite you to the 2024 Bonsai Developer Conference, taking
place from December 2nd to 4th, 2024, at the Sainsbury Wellcome Centre in
London, UK. This event brings together neuroscience researchers, computational
scientists, and software engineers with a shared interest in the Bonsai visual
reactive programming language.

The conference program and additional details can be found at

About Bonsai
------------

Bonsai https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://bonsai-rx.org/__;!!Mih3wA!CMRV144U_tv3Sn7ihdDVTEqlMYkPolcSRaq1fCH6HKlGLmC2RN8Xqzxbh9chu6eCpFjCwjwiHfkEzk5xz0bMpSN05Q$  is an open-source reactive visual programming language
widely use for neuroscience experimental control.

Differently from standard programming languages where control flow is specified
by composing sequences of instructions, and checking conditional loops
for the occurrence of events, in reactive languages https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://introtorx.com/__;!!Mih3wA!CMRV144U_tv3Sn7ihdDVTEqlMYkPolcSRaq1fCH6HKlGLmC2RN8Xqzxbh9chu6eCpFjCwjwiHfkEzk5xz0Ywff5ruQ$ 
the control flow is specified by composing event streams. By placing asynchronous
data streams front and centre, it becomes much easier to succinctly build complex
programs manipulating hundreds of parallel data sources and controllers while
retaining interoperability and modularity.

Bonsai is a visual programming language where programs are laid out graphically.
Each node represents a data stream, and edges represent input dependencies
between streams. Parameters can be manipulated dynamically and every stream can
be inspected at runtime. This graphical approach allows users with no programming experience
to create complex asynchronous programs, and experienced Bonsai users to very quickly
deploy and manage entire systems and applications.

Bonsai is able to interface with a large number of experimental hardware
for neuroscience experimental control, allowing researchers to easily build
sophisticated experiments.

We look forward to seeing you in London!
