Summer workshops

The CCN organizes summer workshops on selected topics in cognitive neuroscience.  The workshops are held at Dartmouth.  Invited speakers bring younger investigators from their laboratories, who are encouraged to present their own work in posters.  Dartmouth faculty, post-doctoral fellows, and graduate students are invited to attend the talks and social events and to present posters on their own research.
