    Educational Session 1. Modern Computational Analysis Methods: Multi-scale Approaches for Neuroscientists
    Room 204-205
  • This educational session provides a comprehensive roadmap for applying modern computational methods across multiple scales. Bridging the gap between raw experimental data and theoretical insight, the session covers three core levels: statistical frameworks for single-cell encoding, population dynamics, and network-level representation analysis. Moving beyond conceptual summaries, this session focuses on practical technique education, providing researchers with technical workflows and implementation strategies. Featuring world-renowned experts, participants will learn how to transition from recording individual neurons to understanding whole-brain systems. The session emphasizes practical methodologies, including GLM, dimensionality reduction, and representational similarity analysis (RSA), empowering researchers to integrate computational modeling into their experimental workflows
