Past TCN Papers

Time and Location

2:00-3:00pm usually every Wednesday in the Redwood Center (560 Evans). For 2013 Fall term, we are meeting every other week. Please sign up to the email list (below) for announcements on meeting dates.

Overview

This journal club is aimed at graduate students from the neuroscience program, neuroscience related life sciences, as well as students from engineering, physics, and math programs with an interest in a computational approach to studying the brain. It provides a broad survey of literature from theoretical and computational neuroscience. Readings will combine both seminal works and recent theories. We meet for one session each week.

It is possible to take this seminar for credit. If you would like to do so, please mention during journal club.

If you have questions, please email the club organizer James Arnemann.

E-mail List

To subscribe to the journal club email list, visit link. You will receive emails twice a week about papers that will be covered in the next meeting.

Guidelines for Presenting Papers

Each person that selects a paper should present, in about 15-30 minutes:

  • an executive summary
  • an outline of the key points, ideas, or contributions
  • relevant background information
  • a description of the key figures
  • what you took away from the paper
  • some potential questions for discussion
  • you are encouraged to use whatever method to present (slides, puppets, etc.)
