The program is dedicated to the theme Development, dynamics and pathology of neuronal networks: from molecules to functional circuits. The Summer School will focus on key mechanisms in the development of neurons into circuits with functional dynamics, and will link the dynamics in neural circuits with cognitive / behavioral processes. In this respect we wish to emphasize (1) molecular and cell-biological mechanisms of neuronal network development and plasticity, (2) understanding activity in neuronal networks in relation to their structure, and (3) understanding normal and deficient neural circuitry at the cognitive and behavioral level. The Summer School aims at providing a forum for discussing broad views as well as latest developments on the above topics. The lectures are presented by internationally renowned scientists. The target groups are PhD students, postdoctoral fellows, senior researchers and clinicians. Please visit the Summer School website http://www.nih.knaw.nl/summerschool for information and registration.
