DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Statistical Analysis of Neural Data (SAND) meetings have become a principal forum for discussion and study of data analytic techniques in neuroscience. They are held in even years in Pittsburgh, PA. The fifth workshop is planned for May 20-22, 2010 and the sixth for May 31-June 2, 2012. SAND5 and SAND6 will bring together experimental neuroscientists, computer scientists, statisticians, engineers, and physicists who are interested in quantitative analysis of neuronal data. This workshop series aims to define important problems in neuronal data analysis and useful strategies for attacking them; foster communication between experimental neuroscientists and those trained in statistical and computational methods encourage young researchers, including graduate students, to present their work; and expose young researchers to important challenges and opportunities in this interdisciplinary domain, while providing a small meeting atmosphere to facilitate the interaction of young researchers with senior colleagues. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Major advances in recording and imaging technologies have put into the hands of investigators wonderful tools for conducting previously unimagined experiments, yielding rich data sources that can shed new light on basic neuroscience and its clinical implications. The data sets are, however, often large and complex, so that novel methods of analysis are needed if the wealth of new information is to be turned into useful knowledge. The Statistical Analysis of Neural Data (SAND) meetings will continue to push neuroscience forward by encouraging young computationally-oriented researchers and by improving communication and dissemination of relevant results.

描述（由申请人提供）：神经数据（SAND）会议的统计分析已成为讨论和研究神经科学中数据分析技术的主要论坛。他们甚至在宾夕法尼亚州匹兹堡举行。第五届研讨会计划于2010年5月20日至2010年5月31日至2012年6月2日举行的第六次。SAND5和SAND6将汇集对神经元数据定量分析感兴趣的实验性神经科学家，计算机科学家，统计学家，工程师和物理学家。该研讨会系列旨在定义神经元数据分析中的重要问题以及攻击它们的有用策略；促进实验性神经科学家与接受统计和计算方法培训的人之间的沟通，鼓励包括研究生在内的年轻研究人员介绍他们的工作；并使年轻研究人员在这个跨学科领域中面临重要的挑战和机遇，同时提供了一个小的聚会氛围，以促进年轻研究人员与高级同事的相互作用。 公共卫生相关性：录制和成像技术的重大进展已掌握在研究人员手中的精彩工具，以进行以前的实验，从而产生了丰富的数据源，这些数据源可以使基本神经科学及其临床意义有新的启示。但是，数据集通常是大而复杂的，因此，如果要将大量新信息变成有用的知识，则需要新颖的分析方法。神经数据（SAND）会议的统计分析将继续通过鼓励年轻以计算为导向的研究人员并改善相关结果的沟通和传播来推动神经科学的前进。
