Pre-Workshop Videoconference Schedule
Following the model of previous meetings, there will be a few pre-workshop videoconferences to help get the conversations going prior to the workshop on December 3-4. This process is intended to facilitate more mature dialogues and brainstorming sessions at the in-person meeting.
Below is the pre-workshop schedule for each of the Topic Areas, which was based on the mutual availability of Topic Area co-leaders and advisors. Please feel free to join as many videoconferences as you would like – everyone’s participation is encouraged!
Topic A: Bottom-up approaches towards multimodal functional connectomes
5 November, 11 PM EST
20 November, 11 PM EST
Topic B: Large-scale lifespan studies
8 November, 12 PM EST
22 November, 12 PM EST
NB! Links for the online pre-meetings have now been distributed through the NHP-MRI mailing list. If you did not get the links and would like to attend the links send us an email (please mention your affiliation/supervisor).
Other GCW content
In addition to the two break-out topics, the 2024 PRIME-DRE GCW will feature:
Flash talks
Both days will feature a flash talk session in which PRIME-DRE consortium members of all career stages will briefly present themselves and their scientific interests to the community.
Similar initiatives and funding agencies
There will be brief introductory presentations from initiatives that are similar to PRIME-DRE and we might learn from or connect with, as well from funding agencies to hear about the possibilities for PRIME-DRE related funding schemes.
