List of hackathons in Old Westbury, United States in 2020

Overview The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers interested in developing executable models of neural computation/processing of the brain of model organisms. Of interest are models of computation that consist of elementary units of processing using brain circuits and memory elements. Elementary units of computation/processing include population encoding/decoding circuits with biophysically-grounded neuron models, non-linear dendritic processors for motion detection/direction selectivity, spike processing and pattern recognition neural circuits, movement control and decision-making circuits, etc. Memory units include models of spatio-temporal memory circuits, circuit models for memory access and storage, etc. A major aim of the workshop is to explore the integration of various sensory and control circuits in higher brain centers. A Fruit Fly Brain Hackathon is being conducted in conjunction with the workshop. Workshop participants are welcome to attend the hackathon. Organizer and Program Chair Aurel A. Lazar, Department of Electrical Engineering, Columbia University. Registration Registration is free but all participants have to register. Thank you!

"[The Summit] literally gave me a new perspective on working with my most challenging students." "It made me realize that I have access to so much data, and I needed to make more of an effort to display it to my team and have open discussions about it." "I knew that DeansList compiled a lot of data and that many schools were using it, but I did not know how much you all were rooted in social justice outcomes. I'm even prouder now to say we use DeansList as a school!" "Just opened my eyes to frame things for other teachers." Meals Breakfast, lunch and snacks will be provided. If you have any dietary restrictions, please let us know when purchasing your ticket or e-mail us at summit@deanslistsoftware.com.

HackTrin VII is the seventh iteration of Trinity School’s annual hackathon. Middle and high schoolers, of any experience level, can participate. You can form teams of 1-4 students, even across different schools, and work to make projects relating to coding. We'll have workshops and mentors to help you with your projects and learn! We will announce the secret theme two weeks before HackTrin, after which you can start planning (but not coding or building). Coding and building starts March 8th. You’ll present your projects to our panels of judges to win prizes in multiple categories (including a beginner category)!

HackTrin VII is the seventh iteration of Trinity School’s annual (free!) hackathon for middle and high schoolers of any experience level.

**High School/Middle School Students Only** Students will have 12 hours to start a project with a given theme to be presented at the hackathon.
