[AUDITORY] Symposium on auditory EEG/MEG signal processing: save the date

[Tom Francart <tom.francart@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear colleague,

We are pleased to announce the first edition of the Auditory EEG Signal Processing (AESoP) symposium, to be held from May 21 (noon) to May 23 (noon) in Leuven, Belgium. We aim to bridge the gap between the existing auditory neuroscience and engineering conferences.

The topic of the symposium is research on hearing, speech and language, making use of novel EEG or MEG signal processing. It is intended to be multidisciplinary between neuroscience, audiology and engineering, bringing people from these fields together.

The symposium is organised by the Leuven team and supported by the steering committee:
Tom Francart and Jan Wouters (KU Leuven, Belgium)
Jonathan Simon (University of Maryland, USSA)
Ed Lalor (University of Rochester, NY, USA)
Alain de Cheveigné (CNRS, France)
Andrew Dimitrijevic (Sunnybrook Research Institute, Toronto, Canada)

Apart from talks by the steering committee members, so far confirmed speakers are:
Alexander Bertrand (KU Leuven, Belgium),
Michael X Cohen (Radboud University, Netherlands),
Stefan Debener (University of Oldenburg, Germany),
Dante Mantini (KU Leuven, Belgium),
Lucas Parra (CCNY, New York, USA),
Malcolm Slaney (Google Research, California, USA)

More information on the programme, abstract submission and registration will follow soon on our website: http://www.kuleuven.be/exporl/aesop.php
Symposium-related correspondence may be addressed to aesop@xxxxxxxxxxx

During the 3-day symposium there will be opportunities to discover and taste the beautiful historic city of Leuven, also known as the beer capital of the world.

Looking forward to meet you in Leuven in May,

With kind regards,
On behalf of the organizing committee,
Tom Francart
