"1999 NEUROENGINEERING AND MATHEMATICAL NEUROSCIENCE WORKSHOP"
 

DATES: FRIDAY, JANUARY 15AND SATURDAY, JANUARY 16, 1999
PLACE: ENGINEERING RESEARCH CENTER, ROOM 490.
TIME: 9:00 A.M. TO 5:00 P.M.



 
 

This Neuroengineering and Mathematical Neuroscience workshop jointly sponsored by SSERC, ASU and UNAM, will be held January 15 & 16 1999. It is intended to bring together workers from the two universities with common interests to build bridges toward future collaborations and interactions, and to facilitate joint research activities, scientific interactions, joint publications, exchange of faculty, staff and students for research and study, and exchange of exchange of academic information and materials.
