It is our pleasure to announce the NIH MEG North America workshop, to be held November 1st and 2nd at the NIH campus in Bethesda, MD. A call for abstracts is currently open! We are soliciting abstracts based on the four themes for discussion below, as well as for a general scientific session. Visit http://megworkshop.nih.gov for more details. Abstracts are due by September 1st. At this meeting, we plan to address the following four themes: 1. What does MEG add to the field of neuroscience above and beyond other existing techniques? 2. How can we support the evolution of MEG acquisition and methods, through both software and hardware? 3. How can we develop and support infrastructure to share data and facilitate big science? 4. How could an MEG-North America consortium work to address these issues?
