DESCRIPTION:Neely Swanson\nTitle: Literal or Sense for Sense: Problems wit
 h translating Cajal\nAbstract: The shorter works of Ramón y Cajal had bee
 n translated in the past\, but it was the advent of the personal computer 
 that facilitated the translation of his major work. Previous works had bee
 n translated literally\, making them accurate but sterile. This was not wh
 at Cajal himself intended and Swanson and Swanson took a different approac
 h in their three translations: “New Ideas on the Structure of the Nervou
 s System in Man and Vertebrates\,” “Histology of the Nervous System in
  Man and Vertebrates”  and finally\, “Advice for a Young Investigator.
 ”\n\nLarry Swanson\nDepartment of Biological Sciences\, University of So
 uthern California\, Los Angeles\nTitle: A short history of connectomics fr
 om Willis to Cajal and beyond\nAbstract: Attempts to provide a global mode
 l of brain structure-function organization date back over 1500 years. Majo
 r conceptual advances by Vesalius\, Willis\, Cajal and others will be revi
 ewed\, and the latest approach based on connectomics will be introduced. T
 his systematic strategy is based on adjacency matrices (connectomes)\, gra
 ph theory\, and cluster analysis.
