from equations to interventions
Due to increasing travel restrictions from universities and recommendations by the CDC for social distancing in the escalating corona-virus situation, we have decided to postpone the movement workshop originally scheduled for March 20-21. We are exploring options to reschedule for later this year and will provide more information in the near future.

Atlanta Next Gen Neuro is a collaborative group of faculty at Emory University and Georgia Institute of Technology, with the mission of developing experimental and theoretical foundations for the next decade of computational and systems neuroscience research, and of growing the community of like-minded researchers in the Atlanta area.
We are hosting a 1.5 day movement workshop titled Individuality in movement and locomotion: From equations to interventions. This workshop will span topics related to the variability and individuality of locomotion as a movement pattern across multiple species, ranging from insects to animals to humans.

Organizers: Lena Ting, Trisha Kesar, Ilya Nemenman (Emory University)
Coordinators: Tiera Ward, Elizabeth Caudle, Leita Young, Cassandra Carroll
