Late-breaking abstracts for IST 2026 (Banff): submit July 22 to August 19
by Graham Little June 18, 2026

June 18, 2026

Dear colleagues, Registration for IST 2026 in Banff is open, and we are adding a late-breaking abstract window for work that wasn't ready by the spring deadline. If you have new results, this is a second route onto the program. Conference dates: October 25 to 29, 2026 Location: Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity, Banff National Park, Canada Late-breaking window: July 22 to August 19, 2026 Submit here: https://event.fourwaves.com/ist2026 IST 2026 is the society's second annual meeting. It runs across the full tractography workflow, from anatomy and validation through methods and clinical applications, with time set aside for direct conversation with the people using and building the tools. What's on the program: - Keynotes from Neda Jahanshad (Keck School of Medicine, USC; ENIGMA), Luis Concha (Institute of Neurobiology, UNAM), and Forrest Collman (Allen Institute for Brain Science) - Masterclasses in three tracks: Anatomy and Validation, Analysis and Methods, and Clinical Applications - A program where every trainee presents, with a power pitch and a poster The window closes August 19, and there are fewer late-breaking slots than in the main round, so send yours in early once submissions open. Best regards, The IST 2026 Organizing Committee

Call for applications: NeuroHackademy 2026, Deadline March 16th
by Ariel Rokem March 4, 2026

March 4, 2026

With apologies for cross-posting: We are happy to announce a call for applications to participate in NeuroHackademy 2026! This two-week hands-on workshop will be held in a hybrid format, July 13th-24th, 2026, both at the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington, USA, and online. NeuroHackademy is an opportunity for participants to learn state-of-the-art methods for the analysis and management of large human neuroscience datasets while also networking and working with domain experts and each other on concrete neuroscience problems. The curriculum emphasizes large datasets of publicly available data (such as the Human Connectome Project, OpenNeuro, etc.), and on the value of making human neuroscience research open and reproducible. NeuroHackademy sessions in the first week will include lectures and tutorials on data science, machine learning, data visualization, and data resources, as well as extended Q&A sessions. The second week will be devoted primarily to participant-directed activities: guided work on team projects, hackathon sessions, and breakout sessions on topics of interest. Participants will have an opportunity to present their own work in a session that will take place in the second week of the event. This event will be held in a hybrid format, with options to attend in-person in Seattle, or online. Participants attending online will join the event through multiple online channels, including zoom-casts of lectures and breakout sessions, Slack conversations, and collaboration through GitHub and through the course’s online JuptyerHub. For more details and a preliminary list of instructors, see: https://neurohackademy.org/ 14 We are now accepting applications to participate here: https://neurohackademy.org/apply/ 7 (If you are unable to see the application embedded in this page, try this link instead 1.) Ideally, applicants should have some prior experience with programming and with neuroscience data analysis, but we welcome applications from participants with a variety of relevant backgrounds. For frequently asked questions, please refer to this page: https://neurohackademy.org/frequently-asked-questions/ 2 Accepted applicants will be asked to pay a fee of $250 (in person) / $25 (online) upon final registration. Fees cover housing and two meals per day for in person participants.
