The joint iCODE-SynchNeuro Workshop on Neural Population Dynamics (see website), organized by Georgios and Antoine, took place Supélec (Gif sur Yvette) on February, 4th 2015. It aimed at gathering neuroscientists and control theoreticians around the dynamics of neural populations. Its topics covered: modeling, identification of parameters based on experimental data, link between models, mathematical analysis, and feedback control. The list of invited speakers was: Bruno Cessac, Alain Destexhe, David Hansel, Axel Hutt, Dimitris Pinotsis, and Peter Wellstead. 10 posters were also presented. The workshop was a great success: more than 65 people from France and abroad participated. We warmly thank the speakers for their interesting talks !
