Dear Colleagues,

Do you have Program Goals and Expected Learning Outcomes? I'd be delighted
to see what various departments/programs have devised.

Send me a copy at dr.billgrisham at gmail.com

> The Winter 2020 CrawFly Workshop will be held Wednesday, January 8 through
> Sunday, January 12, 2020 at the University of the Incarnate Word (UIW) in
> San Antonio, Texas.  This workshop is sponsored by ADInstruments and A-M
> Systems, and hosted by Drs. Veronica Martinez Acosta and Alex Martinez from
> UIW and Gerard Beaudoin from Trinity University.  The site announcement and
> registration with detailed information for this neuroscience educator
> workshop is:
> https://www.adinstruments.com/events/crawdad-crawfly-and-snailfest/crawfly-invertebrate-neurophysiology-course
> .
>
>
>
> The workshop teaches principles of signal transmission in the nervous
> system with classic Crawdad lab exercises and behavioral and
> electrophysiological exercises that use the genetic tractability of fruit
> flies.  The fly exercises highlight optogenetic manipulation to explore
> principles of behavior and physiology with the fruit fly model system.
>  Participants are guided in using electrophysiological instrumentation for
> extracellular and intracellular recording techniques.  LabChart software is
> taught for acquisition and analysis of physiological and behavioral data,
> and control of electrical and opto-genetic nerve stimulation.  Sessions
> also include brainstorming on best practices in laboratory and classroom
> teaching.
>
>
>
> As part of our continuing development of DIY teaching instrumentation,
> participants will each make and take home Jim Ryan?s design for an
> inexpensive, high quality micro-manipulator, in addition to taking home our
> signature optogenetic light sources.  We will also demonstrate our recent
> DIY equipment for inexpensive fluorescent imaging.
>

>
> CrawFly workshop faculty include: Veronica Martinez Acosta and Alex
> Martinez (UIW), Gerard Beaudoin (Trinity University), Karen Hibbard (HHMI,
> Janelia Research Campus, Jim Ryan (Hobart William Smith Colleges), Ilya
> Vilinsky (University of Cincinnati), Bob Wyttenbach (Emory University), Ron
> Hoy, David Deitcher and myself (Cornell University), and Emily Pease and
> colleagues from ADInstruments.

>
> Two competitive scholarships will be awarded for CrawFly tuition.  Visit:
> https://adinstrumentsna.survey.fm/adinstruments-crawfly-educator-scholarship-application
> to learn more about the award requirements and to submit your application.
> All application materials must be submitted no later than 11:59 PM (EST)
> November 22, 2019. You do not need to register for the workshop to apply
> for this scholarship.  Seats in CrawFly are being held specifically for
> scholarship recipients.  Scholarship winners will be announced by December
> 3, 2019.
