Pointers
What began as a workshop in 1990, today OCNS meetings are where experimental neuroscience meets theoretical, statistical and computer-simulation analyses, with the hope of turning large collections of
experimental results into a principled understanding of nervous systems. The goal is to organize a high-quality meeting that is both informative and fun, with their website serving as a useful resource for
computational neuroscientists.
