External Email - Use Caution
Hi everybody, We are pleased to announce that the application portal is still open for the NIH funded 2024 session of the course, “Training in Advanced Statistical Methods in Neuroimaging and Genetics”.
We hope you pass this email and the associate flyer on to your local neuroimaging community.
The course will start on Monday, April 15, 2024 and finish on April 26, 2024. We are happy to announce that the course is to be held in person, in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States at the University Guest House Conference Center. Our course also includes an ongoing continuing education portion.
The course is an intensive 2-weeks, about 8 hours per day of a mix of lectures and hands-on computer labs.
The course cost is $3000 (see scholarship information below), which includes hotel accommodations at the Guest House (arrival on April 14 with departure on April 26), breakfast, lunch, day time snacks, three dinners out as a group, and the planned evening activities. All course attendees will arrange for their own transportation to Salt Lake City. The course cost does include a daily pass to the Salt Lake City Trax light rail/commuter system. (Please note that the course instructors' effort is supported by the NIH grant thus avoiding that cost being passed on to the course attendees. This course is strictly not-for-profit.) Because of the limited size and advanced nature of the course, attendance is by application only – please make sure to fully read the website instructions. In general, applicants must be a US citizen, permanent resident, or with an appointment at a US institution, though we do have the ability to accommodate 3 to 6 individuals that do not meet this criteria. We anticipate the total class size to be between 22 and 25 students.
There are opportunities for scholarships which can partially offset hotel accommodations. These are based on true financial need and you will be instructed how to apply if you are admitted to the course.
We look forward to seeing you in SLC in 2024!
The application deadline is Nov 1, 2023. Decisions around Dec 5th.
