THE WORKSHOP ON RESTING-STATE fMRI: SECOND CIRCULAR

THE WORKSHOP ON RESTING-STATE fMRI: SECOND CIRCULAR

Beijing – P. R. China
5th – 6th April 2009
Introduction:
The workshop on resting-state fMRI will be held at the Beijin Normal University, P. R. China on April 5-6, 2009. The purpose of the workshop is to spread the development of resting-state fMRI, and foster the interests of the researchers in resting-state fMRI study. This workshop will provide a forum for discussion on resting-state fMRI, and it will strengthen the understanding of resting-state fMRI and promote the resting-state fMRI application in cognition and pathology studies.
