GlobalSIP 2013 Symposium on: Advancing Neural Engineering Through Big Data

GlobalSIP 2013

1st IEEE Global Conference on Signal and Information Processing

December 3-5, 2013 Austin, Texas

Symposium Date: Wednesday, December 4, 2013

The past two decades have seen an explosion in Neural Engineering research dedicated to interfacing the nervous system to the external world. Research in this area has been motivated by the promise of treatments for elusive medical conditions ranging from blindness to chronic pain to spinal cord injury, and has been supported by a sustained campaign from a spectrum of federal funding agencies. Overall progress in the field has been limited by the lack of large, comprehensive data resources. The purpose of this symposium is to focus the attention of the research community on a progression of neural engineering research questions and to generate and curate massive data sets to be used in addressing those questions. The existence of massive common data corpora has proven to substantially accelerate research progress. In this symposium, we will explore the community needs for such massive data and discuss models for the funding, development and distribution of these resources.

15th IEEE International Conference on e-Health Networking, Application & Services (IEEE Healthcom 2013)

The15th IEEE International Conference on e-Health Networking, Application & Services (IEEE Healthcom 2013) will be held in Lisbon, the capital city of Portugal, from October 09 to October 12, 2013.

IEEE Healthcom 2013 is fully sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society. It aims at bringing together interested parties from around the world working in the health care field to exchange ideas, to discuss innovative and emerging solutions, and to develop collaborations. eHealth is defined as the cost-effective and secure use of information and communications technologies in support of health and the related fields, including health-care related services, surveillance, literature, education, knowledge, and research, both at the local site and at a distance. It will make personalized medicine possible and affordable in the near future. The adoption of eHealth technologies in medical fields creates huge opportunities yet lots of challenges still need to be resolved to build reliable, secure, and efficient networks or platforms with great flexibility.
