The Cognition and Neural Systems (CNS) Journal Club (nee' BCS Journal Club), also known as PSYCH 6271-101, meets on Tuesdays from 11:40 to 1:00 pm(ish) in 156 Goldwin Smith Hall (Pending confirmation) For Spring semester 2010-2011, the Behavioral, Computational, and Systems Neuroscience (BCS) Journal Club will meet on Tuesdays from 12:00 to 1:15 pm in Uris Hall 205.
Papers and notes from previous semesters can be found in the CNS (BCS) meeting archive.

Presentations in the CNS JC are intended to "show us what you are interested in"; i.e., present work within your subfield that illustrates why it is interesting and broadly applicable. It is less important to choose papers that you think will be close to every attendees' heart than it is to choose papers that are blisteringly important or interesting or controversial in your own subfield, and explain/share this with the group. It's good for all of us. The corollary is that journal club members attend regularly, and don't decide whether to attend in a given week based on what is being presented.
Presenting your own work is always welcome, in whatever manner you like.The overarching theme this semester is Systems of neuronal representation and learning. Adhering to this theme is not required, but is strongly recommended. Please interpret it broadly. It is intended to include such diverse topics as: the systematic regulation of synaptic plasticity, Bayesian representations (including sensory representations as probability estimates), Bayesian and/or energetic optimality in neural encoding or transmission, perceptual learning, decision-making (including reward harvesting), temporal difference learning/dopamine (Schultz model), synaptic rules that give rise to systems-level learning properties.
To add yourself to the BCS-L mailing list, send a plain-text email to bcs-L-request@cornell.edu (BCS is the historical name of the journal club) with the body subject line of the message saying simply join. The subject line doesn't mattersimply join, and the body of the message blank/empty. Sending the message with a subject line of leave instead will unsubscribe you from the list. See Cornell's Lyris HowTo page for further details.
You can enroll in the CNS Journal Club for credit (1 CR, S/U) as a Topics in Biopsychology seminar: PSYCH 6271. The course requires that you present at least once during the semester and participate actively overall. You are welcome to attend without enrolling, of course, but we do appreciate you enrolling if you plan to attend the whole semester and to present.
Please contact Thomas Cleland or David Smith with any questions.
