Our team is currently working on bringing the CNSP2025 Workshop to you! It will take place online on September 2-3, 2025.

This year, for the first time, we are also organizing a CNSP Hackathon. It will take place in Maastricht, Netherlands on September 12-14, 2025. More details coming soon. You will get an opportunity to put your coding skills to the test and solve real problems in natural sensory processing.

About:

Methodologies for neural signal processing in the case of natural scenes and sound perception.

• Talks from experts in the field
• Tutorials on encoding and decoding models for neural signal analysis
• Tutorial sessions on specific study cases and/or methodologies
• Q/A sessions and continuous support throughout the workshop

Participants?

• Researchers interested in studying natural speech or music perception with EEG/MEG/ECoG, but have no experience with ecologically-valid experiments.
• Researchers with experience in continuous sensory perception and tools such as the mTRF-Toolbox, who are interested in deepening their understanding and in expanding their set of tools.

Prerequisites?

• Some experience with neural signal processing (e.g., EEG, MEG, or ECoG).
• Some programming experience (Matlab/Python) for the hands-on sessions.
• A practical interest in applying these notions.

What will you learn?

• Theoretical insights into system identification and multivariate linear methods for neural signal analysis
• Practical guidelines on how to prepare, process, and interpret your data
• Practical knowledge of tools for neural signal analysis such as the mTRF-Toolbox

Dedicated Q&A breakout rooms

The workshop will include a Q&A session for discussing your questions.

• We will have a general Q&A breakout room for questions that may arise during the workshop.
• We will also organise breakout rooms to answer specific questions that participants may ask before the workshop (via our Slack channel).
