"The 8th National Conference on Functional Brain Imaging by Near Infrared Spectroscopy"

Meeting dates: November 11-13, 2023

Venue: Beijing Normal University

Organizer: State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience and Learning, Beijing Normal University, Beijing, China

I. Introduction to the meeting

   Functional Near Infrared Spectroscopic Brain Imaging (fNIRS) is highly valued in brain science research because of its low cost of equipment purchase and use, its ability to be used in natural environment, and its high temporal resolution and spatial localization ability. The "NIRS Brain Functional Imaging Conference" is a national conference initiated and organized by Prof. Zhaoche Zhu of the State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience and Learning, Beijing Normal University. It has been successfully held for seven consecutive sessions, attracting more than 800 scholars from nearly 100 universities, research institutes and hospitals across China. The conference has become the largest and most influential fNIRS brain imaging academic event in China.

   This year's conference is organized by the State Key Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience and Learning, Beijing Normal University. The conference will continue the pattern of combining academic presentations and research methodology workshops in previous conferences. The Academic Presentation Module (Saturday, November 11) will invite renowned scholars in the fields of psychology and cognitive neuroscience, basic and clinical medicine, as well as engineering and technology to report their latest research results in fNIRS; and the Workshop Module (November 12-13) will be organized by frontline researchers in the field of fNIRS to systematically teach the principles of fNIRS imaging, experimental design, data analysis and statistics, paper writing, as well as the frontiers of fNIRS. fNIRS data analysis and statistics, fNIRS thesis writing, and fNIRS cutting-edge technologies. In addition to theoretical lectures, fNIRS spatial localization and data analysis (NIRS-KIT software) will be provided, and sufficient time for Q&A will be arranged for the participants to communicate and interact with each other.
