2nd SYMPOSIUM ON THE ADVANCES IN BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING AND NEUROSCIENCE (2023), MANDATORY PhD course for the programme (Biomedical Engineering and Neuroscience)

Description

The course has a focus on disseminating the most relevant and recent achievements within biomedical and engineering science to address relevant health care problems. This course will be organized annually and will include a series of lectures from internationally recognized speakers and from speakers from Aalborg University that are experts within the field. During the symposium, some time will be dedicated to the facilitation of interaction between the speakers and participants. The detailed agenda of the course will be provided on the course web site. Main topics can include electrophysiology, psychophysics, bio-signal processing, biostatistics, rehabilitation technology, machine learning, physiological modeling, decision support, big data, image analysis and computational neuroscience but also topics relevant for the life as a PhD student such as management of a research project, risk analysis and mitigation etc.

 

Literature

Relevant journal articles and book chapters related to the specific talks will be announced shortly before the course.

 

Prerequisites

The course targets PhD students of the Program in Biomedical Engineering and Neuroscience and other PhD students working within these areas. The course is repeated every year with a different focus, thus participation to the previous edition does not preclude participation in this edition.

 

Evaluation

A poster session will be organized during the symposium. PhD students will bring and present a poster on their own work (it is allowed to bring a poster presented at another conference or meeting).

Important information concerning PhD courses:


We have over some time experienced problems with no-show for both project and general courses. It has now reached a point where we are forced to take action. Therefore, the Doctoral School has decided to introduce a no-show fee of DKK 3.000 for each course where the student does not show up. Cancellations are accepted no later than 2 weeks before start of the course. Registered illness is of course an acceptable reason for not showing up on those days. Furthermore, all courses open for registration approximately four months before start. This can hopefully also provide new students a chance to register for courses during the year. We look forward to your registrations.
