*** ICSB 2001 ***
The Second International Conference on Systems Biology
------------------------------------------------------
The California Institute of Technology
Pasadena, CA, USA
November 4-7, 2001
Poster abstract submission deadline: September 2, 2001
Systems Biology is the synergistic application of experiment,
theory and modeling towards understanding biological processes as
whole systems instead of isolated parts. Understanding
biological processes from the systems perspective is an essential
cornerstone of a true understanding of biological function.
The Second International Conference on Systems Biology (ICSB2001)
will bring together researchers working in systems biology and
related areas to present the current status of their research and
to discuss future directions for the field. This year, ICSB2001
will be held during November 4-7, 2001, at the California
Institute of Technology in Pasadena, California, USA.
The conference will begin with tutorials and workshops on the
morning of Sunday, November 4. The formal scientific sessions
will begin on Monday, November 5, at 8:30 AM and end at noon on
Wednesday, November 7. The sessions will feature keynote
speeches and invited presentations by world-renowned researchers,
along with afternoon poster sessions and evening social
activities.

Subject: Job announcement for MEG lab
Content-type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII
Technical Coordinator, MEG Laboratory
Cognitive Neuroscience of Language Laboratory,
Department of Linguistics
University of Maryland College Park
The Cognitive Neuroscience of Language Laboratory at the University of
Maryland is developing a new state-of-the-art magnetoencephalography (MEG)
facility. The MEG facility will perform non-invasive recordings with
millisecond resolution in time, and high spatial resolution, afforded by a
dense sensor array (160+ channels). The laboratory will be used for
research in a number of disciplines, including linguistics, neuroscience,
electrical engineering, computer science, and physics.
The lab is seeking a full-time Technical Coordinator, starting September
1st, 2001, or as soon as possible thereafter. The Technical Coordinator
responsibilities include: maintaining the MEG laboratory, including
stimulus delivery equipment and a number of PC workstations for data
acquisition/analysis; supervising and running experiments; developing
protocols and manuals, and training new lab users; assisting in preparing
experiments and analyzing data. The position provides an exciting
opportunity to gain expertise in a cutting edge cognitive neuroscience
laboratory.
The position demands energy and initiative, technical aptitude, ability to
work with a wide variety of people, and a serious interest in brain
function. Experience in any of the following areas is desirable, though not
necessary: cognitive science, neuroscience, computer programming,
electrophysiology, radiology, electrical engineering, or physics.
The position comes with a competitive salary and full benefits. For more
information on the Cognitive Neuroscience of Language Laboratory, see
