The School of Ideas in Neuroscience is a grassroots response to the common call for more theory in neuroscience. We believe that theoretical thinking and idea development are skills that can be trained just as new methodologies and data analysis tools. At our school, we aim to teach participants how to think theoretically to collect data that makes sense and to make sense of collected data. Sessions held in the school are divided into three sections – frameworks, metatheory, and tools workshops. For the first part, the Frameworks, we invite neuroscientists who combine experimental work with creating and developing broader theoretical frameworks in neuroscience. This section will host six speakers: Anna Ciaunica, Patrick Haggard, Henry Yin, Anne von Philipsborn, Barbara Finlay, and Gáspár Jékely. In the Metatheory section, we invite historians and philosophers of neuroscience to give our participants a bird's-eye view of the field and show them how ideas are being developed, accepted, and discarded. Speakers for this section are David Barack, Mazviita Chirimuuta, and Danielle Williams. Finally, in the Tools section, researchers experienced in the use of particular data collection or analysis methods and toolboxes lead workshops in which they engage, with participants, in uncovering the assumptions and implications of those toolboxes, in order to understand when they are applicable. In this section, we are hosting John Bickle, Hiba Sheheitli, and Fernando Rosas.
