Rovereto, Italy

About

Welcome to the Rovereto CuttingEEG Garden! Our program explores the methodological frontiers of M/EEG through five key areas: neurodevelopmental studies, hyperscanning and interpersonal synchrony, multivariate methods, frequency-tagging, and multimodal imaging. Alternating cutting-edge talks with hands-on tutorials, we will bring local research excellence to the global community.

Topics

Neurodevelopment and learning
Multimodal imaging and advanced MVPA
Hyperscanning and social synchrony

Tutorials

Interpersonal synchrony: theoretical models and practical implementations (Andrea Bizzego)
Dynamic RSA (Marisa Birk, Bence Neszmelyi; Shared with Barcelona Garden)
Tracking Stimulus-Specific Brain Responses with Frequency-Tagging (Marco Buiatti)
Improving EEG Source Reconstruction with 3D head scans and MRI (Irene Petrizzo)
