Satellite to the Networks 2021 Conference

At its core, network science helps to uncover the relationships between elements in a complex system. The application of this approach has been instrumental in the investigation of various systems as disparate as social networks, biological systems, communication arrays, and transportation networks. Likewise, the field of neuroscience benefits from using a network science approach to understand the brain.

The brain represents a complex system that is inherently multiscale and multivariate, and comprises a hierarchy defined by interconnectedness linking brain structure, function and cognition. The use of various methods, from multimodal imaging techniques to model simulations, has lead to discoveries that uncover brain processes at the macroscale, mesoscale and microscale. More importantly, topics including network topology, network dynamics, control theory, and computational modelling, strongly complement traditional neuroscientific studies. With the study of the brain at various scales, Network Neuroscience has emerged as a field encompassing multiple disciplines.

Program

Dates: June 30 & July 1

The Network Neuroscience satellite will take place on June 30 & July 1. It will be held over 2 days to accommodate for different time zones for the 8-hour conference schedule: the first during US PM time, and the second during the US morning time. The poster session will happen at the end of the conference to allow participants to remain engaged in discussions as long as they wish (midday EST, morning west coast, afternoon europe, late night pacific). Please find information on how to get the best experience from the poster session below.

The posters and their discussion rooms are accessible all the time, including after the conference. While we head over to the official poster session all together at the end of the conference, you will be able to view all posters at any time, and can schedule a meeting outside our poster session with the presenter in their poster room.

Posters & Oral presentations


The 2021 Network Neuroscience Satellite will include a number of posters and oral presentations contributed by submission. For the poster sessions we are working to provide a friendly, robust, and inclusive platform to maximize the quality of the interactions. All posters are integrated into the Networks Neuroscience posterwall. Each poster will have its own associated video chat room throughout the duration of the conference and beyond, and you will see which poster room is active and how many people are currently discussing there on the poster room page. You can see an example poster room here until we finalise the real ones for this year.
How to get the best conference experience

How to get the best conference experience

LogIn please  🗝
Go to the main page and log in with GitHub. This will not only add you into the network graph of network neuroscience enthusiasts 💛 but also allow you to chat with attendees on the posterwall page.
If you do not have a GitHub account yet, you can easily create one at https://github.com, providing your email address, user name and real name (full name is not obligatory but we recommend it.)

Chat  💬
When you click on the posterwall tab, you will see the chat window on the side of the posterwall. You will be part of the "main room" chat window to interact with all participants. This chat will be available beyond the conference. You can also search for attendees to send them a direct message.

Poster video chat rooms  🎥
will be linked from that same page once the conference is running, and posters where people are connected will be highlighted on the posterwall, showing a little number of how many people are connected to the poster. We recommend to use Chrome browser as the rooms rely on jitsi. But other browsers should work fine as well.
In your poster room, you can video chat with people, and also share your screen for additional or interactive content. You could, for example, open your poster and walk people through. Note: the chat will currently not be saved once you leave the room. Work in progress to have a persistent poster room chat 🤩.
🎥 🎥 You can have several poster rooms open simultaneously. Each room will open in a new tab. This allows you, for example, to keep an eye on your own room while visiting other posters and either inviting interested guests from your own poster to another room first, and then hop over to yours together later, or just quit the other room and join your visitor. Important: Just make sure you are muted in all but one of the jitsi rooms.
