The AREADNE 2010 Conference will bring scientific leaders from
around the world to present their work on the functioning of
neuronal ensembles. The meeting will provide an informal yet
spectacular setting on Santorini in which attendees can discuss
recent findings and ideas. This conference continues our long term
project to form a systems neuroscience research institute within
Greece to conduct state-of-the-art research, offer meetings and
courses, and provide a center for visiting scientists from around
the world to interact with Greek researchers and students.
