Preface
The 1st International Conference on Cognitive Neurodynamics (ICCN’07) was held in Shanghai in 2007. About 300 hundred experts from more than 30 countries and areas attended that conference and made a great success. Thus, in the editorial board meeting of the journal Cognitive Neurodynamics held during the conference, we decided to develop it to be a series conference holding every two years. Now the second one was just held in the beautiful city of Hangzhou, China, November 15–19, 2009. As what we claimed in the editorial of the journal Cognitive Neurodynamics, cognitive neurodynamics is a fast growing new scientific front combining dynamic analysis with cognitive science and neuroscience experiments, which spans the entire range of brain cognition from ionic channels to whole brain activities, and which is combined by the conceptions of nonlinear neurodynamics operating simultaneously at and across all levels. The developments in these two years seem to verify our statement. Many important progresses have been made, and the 2nd conference offered us a wonderful opportunity to review the progress and discuss its problems. As what we expected, the 2nd conference was also successful as the 1st one. There were 8 plenary talks given by the leading scientists in this field and 20 oral sessions and one poster session. The topics of the contributions cover almost all the branches of cognitive neurodynamics, from micro-, meso- to macroscopic cognitive neurodyanmics, their applications and some related topics, especially including neural coding, realistic neural networks, oscillation and synchronization, neural population dynamics, sensory and motor dynamics, EEG, fMRI and brain imaging, global cognitive function, multiscalar neurodynamics, neural computing, brain computer interface, and cognition disorder.
