The workshop will be partially organised as a symposium with invited talks from leading experts in the field of neuroscience:

• Guy Orban (UZ Leuven, campus Gasthuisberg, Leuven, Belgium): Mathematical operations in the visual brain
• Christian Hesse (FC Donders, Nijmegen, The Netherlands): Blind Source Separation Approaches in Neuroscience: Applications and Challenges
• Geertjan Huiskamp (University Medical Center Utrecht, The Netherlands): EEG-correlated fMRI in epilepsy
• Bart Nuttin (UZ Leuven, campus Gasthuisberg, Leuven, Belgium): Deep brain stimulation and a neuroprobe
• Stefan Sunaert (UZ Leuven, campus Gasthuisberg, Leuven, Belgium): The study of brain connectivity through fMRI and DTI
• Hans Hallez (Ghent University, Ghent, Belgium): Influence of anisotropic conductivities in EEG source estimation in patients with epilepsy
• Christian Benar (INSERM-Université Aix-Marseille, France) : Integration of EEG and fMRI: methods and pitfalls
• Febo Cincotti (IRCCS Fondazione Santa Lucia, Rome, Italy): Brain Computer Interfaces: methods and applications

Besides the invited talks there is the opportunity to submit contributions under the form of an abstract for the oral and poster sessions. Afterwards these abstracts can be extended to full papers. A selection of the best papers will be published in a special issue of the journal Biomedizinische Technik / Biomedical Engineering.

Abstracts must be submitted by the 15th of December 2008 and can be maximally 300 words long. All abstracts should be written according to the following template (.doc). The abstracts must be sent by e-mail to . Please also indicate in your e-mail whether you prefer to be included in the poster or in the oral session.
