Cognomics virtual workshop - Capturing the brain for neuroimaging genomics

Like our past in-person conferences, the workshop will include keynote lectures, as well as smaller-scale breakout sessions in which junior researchers will get the opportunity to present their work in the presence of their peers and research leaders, providing time for discussion of each of the contributions. Leading experts will discuss innovations in characterizing the human brain for imaging genomics research and beyond, with keynote lectures on environmental effects (Lauren Salminen), genome screens of EEG traits (Dirk Smit) and functional MRI (Henrik Walter), and transcriptomics of oscillatory activity (Genevieve Konopka).

We are inviting attendees to contribute to the breakout sessions of the Cognomics Workshop 2021 by submitting an abstract. Abstracts can be submitted until the 9th of June. Please send an email with your abstract attached as a Word document to cognomics@radboudumc.nl.

Submitted abstracts will be peer-reviewed by the organizing committee. All presentations will compete for the Best Junior Presenter Award!

We will notify you by the 14th of June regarding approval to give a presentation.

Abstracts should not exceed 250 words (excluding title, author(s), and affiliation(s), and they should have a structured lay-out as follows: background, methods, results, conclusions.
