[NeuroFedora] [Fwd] [Neuroml-technology] Announcing 3 NeuroML hackathon sessions at HARMONY 2021

Hi folks, This may be interesting for folks interested in learning modelling using NeuroML: ----- Forwarded message from Padraig Gleeson ----- Date: Fri, 26 Feb 2021 16:00:07 +0000 From: Padraig Gleeson <p.gleeson(a)ucl.ac.uk&gt; To: neuroml-technology(a)lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Neuroml-technology] Announcing 3 NeuroML hackathon sessions at HARMONY 2021 List-Id: NeuroML main mailing list <neuroml-technology.lists.sourceforge.net> We will be running 3 online hackathon sessions during the upcoming HARMONY 2021 meeting on 23-25th March. The general theme of the sessions will be: Learn to build, visualise, analyse and simulate your models using NeuroML. Why take part? These hackathons will give members of the modelling community the chance to: • Get high level introductions to the NeuroML language and tool chain • Meet the NeuroML core development team and editors • Find out the latest information on which simulators/applications support NeuroML • Open, discuss and work on issues related to converting your model to NeuroML, or supporting NeuroML in your simulator • Learn how to share your models with the community Times and dates All sessions will be online and take place over 3 hours (9am-noon Pacific; 12-3pm EST time; 4-7pm UK/UTC; 5-8pm CET, 9:30pm-12:30am IST; note non-standard US/EU time differences that week). The broad focus of each of the sessions (dependent on interests of attendees) is: Tues 23rd March: Introduction to NeuroML, general questions about usage Wed 24th March: Detailed cell/conductance based models (e.g. converting channels to NeuroML) Thus 25th March: Abstract/point neuron networks including PyNN interactions Registration To take part in the hackathon, please register at http://co.mbine.org/events/ HARMONY_2021 for the HARMONY meeting (registration is free). You will get sent details to access the agenda on https://harmony2021.sched.com, which will have links to the Zoom sessions for each of the days. Open an issue beforehand! While it will be possible to raise and discuss new issues at the hackathons, it will be easier to manage and plan work/discussions if you open an issue with a description of the problem you are trying to address at: https://github.com/ NeuroML/NeuroML2/issues. Slack To aid communication with the community during (and after) the meeting, we have a Slack channel for NeuroML related discussions. Please reply to this mail for an invite. We look forward to working with the community to drive further uptake of NeuroML compliant models and tools! ----------------------------------------------------- Padraig Gleeson Room 321, Anatomy Building Department of Neuroscience, Physiology& Pharmacology University College London Gower Street London WC1E 6BT United Kingdom +44 207 679 3214 p.gleeson(a)ucl.ac.uk ----------------------------------------------------- Neuroml-technology mailing list Neuroml-technology(a)lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/neuroml-technology ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Thanks, Regards, Ankur Sinha "FranciscoD" (He / Him / His) | https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Time zone: Europe/London
