Nineteenth EEGLAB Workshop

Aspet, France - May 25-29, 2015 The 19th EEGLAB Workshop will take place from Monday, May 25th through Friday, May 29th in the village of Aspet in the Pyrenees foothills in southwest France near Toulouse. Participants will be expected to bring laptops with MATLAB installed so as to be able to participate in the practical sessions. The tutorial workshop will introduce and demonstrate the use of the EEGLAB software environment and EEGLAB-linked tools for performing advanced analysis of EEG and related data, with detailed method expositions and practical exercises. The workshop will be held at a French family vacation camp, with hiking and other recreational opportunities available. Meals will be served family style.
