In occasione della Settimana Mondiale del Cervello, la Fondazione Mondino di Pavia, organizza una video conferenza domani 16 marzo dalle ore 14.30 alle ore 17.30, sul tema del linguaggio nelle patologie neurodegenerative.

La presenza di disturbi di linguaggio è stata ampiamente indagata nei soggetti affetti da Afasia Primaria Progressiva, pure se difficoltà in compiti linguistici possono essere presenti anche in altre patologie. In tali condizioni cliniche, il profilo linguistico e i rispettivi correlati neurali non sono stati ancora pienamente caratterizzati rimanendo in molti casi inesplorati. Le recenti innovazioni nel campo delle neuroscienze cognitive hanno portato a nuove metodiche di analisi e integrazione di dati provenienti da molteplici sorgenti, offrendo una prospettiva unica per indagare fenomeni complessi quali il linguaggio. Dati questi presupposti, il Workshop ha lo scopo di aggiornare le conoscenze sui disturbi del linguaggio nelle patologie neurodegenerative, sia per quanto riguarda gli aspetti diagnostici che le possibilità riabilitative, per caratterizzare il profilo linguistico integrando informazioni provenienti da differenti sorgenti (dati comportamentali e cognitivi, di neuroimmagine e computazionali) tramite un approccio multidisciplinare.

A special online event to show why we love Cognitive Neuropsychology and Bressanone

https://sites.google.com/view/ewcn/whyweloveit

Monday 25th January 2021 from 3 p.m.

Dear Friends of the European Workshop on Cognitive Neuropsychology

Due to the well-known issues related to the pandemic, this time the Symposium will be held online in a single day on Monday afternoon of January 25^th 2021, starting a 3 p.m.

Instead of having the usual program, we will be streaming the testimonies of eminent and younger scholars of cognitive neuropsychology and neuroscience.

This people will provide memories and memorabilia on when and how they fell in love with the cognitive neuropsychology, how they became passionate about Bressanone and on what future they foresee for our discipline.

During the same event we will award two young scientists with the EWCN Prize for best abstracts and listen to the presentation of these young Authors. As usual the Prize will be worth the junior registration fee.

Simple and easy, this EWCN extravaganza will serve us to keep our conference together and plan the next edition for 2022 when hopefully we will reconvene in Bressanone for our beloved event.

So, please tune in and register for this unique online event. The admittance is free, but there will be a limited number of virtual seats and priority will be given to those who submit an abstract and to those who register first.

All abstracts will be published on our website in their printed form and as a video, for those willing to present their work live or at least as a video-stream.

We hope to see you all online on the 25th January and to receive your abstracts very soon.

Best wishes

The EWCN team

The Harvard Summer Program in Mind/Brain Sciences is an initiative of the Harvard Mind/Brain/Behavior (MBB) Interfaculty Initiative and the Harvard Summer School in collaboration with the University of Trento.

This eight-week program enrolls American and Italian students and provides a unique opportunity to study neuroscience at the Center of Mind/Brain Science (CIMeC), University of Trento.

Taught by faculty from Harvard, Harvard Medical School and University of Trento the courses include lectures and hands-on laboratory sessions (e.g., neuroimaging demonstrations and practical sessions in the CIMeC laboratories).

In addition to courses, Students have the opportunity to learn about cognitive science research by participating in experiments and by discovering several different methodologies for analyzing the mind, brain and behavior.

In addition to coursework and research, students take advantage of their surroundings with field trips and excursions throughout Italy.
