Workshop
Heart Rate Variability 2006: Techniques, Applications, and
Future Directions (20-22 April 2006).
This 2.5-day course will provide a state-of-the-art overview of the
technical considerations, pertinent computational tools, and clinical
and research applications for heart rate variability (HRV)
analysis. Particular emphasis will be placed on the utility and
pitfalls of these techniques for patient management and research. The
course faculty includes international leaders in the field. They have
authored many of the seminal papers on HRV and are experienced
teachers. See the course brochure
[PDF] for details.
ECGs in Clinical Practice: Pearls and Pitfalls
(9-10 June 2007).
This unique 1.5 day course will provide a practical review of ECG
interpretation for front-line clinicians in office and acute care
settings. Emphasis will be in the detection of potentially
life-threatening problems. See the course
broshure [PDF] for details.
ECGs in Clinical Practice: Pearls and Pitfalls
(3-4 May 2008).
Seminars
The Boston Chaos Club is an interdisciplinary seminar series
about nonlinear dynamics and complex systems in biomedicine. It is
jointly organized by the ReyLab and Dr. Thomas
S. Deisboeck of the
Complex Biosystems Modeling Laboratory at Harvard/MIT. This
seminar series is sponsored by PhysioNet (Research Resource for
Complex Physiologic Signals funded by NIH/NCRR). If you would like to
be on the mailing list to receive announcements of upcoming seminars
please send an email directly to Kathy Johnson.
