I have attended one summer school co-organized by him and it was great 
so I can highly recommend to check this one out.

Dear all,

It is my pleasure to announce a worldwide open online summer school this 
summer: Neuromatch Academy will take place July 13-31, 2020 
(https://neuromatch.io/academy/). Applications are now open!

The pandemic has shut down nearly every summer program in the world at 
which students, postdocs and faculty would normally gather to acquire 
crucial skills and build networks.  We’ve set up a program to replace 
this loss. Our plan is to have an online course in late July focused on 
computational analysis and simulation of neural data with intensive 
mentoring by knowledgeable TAs and faculty mentors to help with 
projects. Tuition will be relatively minimal  (~ 100-200 USD) and also 
voluntary. TAs will be paid a stipend for their time because it will be 
intensive. Mentorship by faculty will be substantially less work.

Interested in signing up as a potential participant, or a TA? Fill out 
one of the three forms below. Also, please feel free to send this out as 
widely as possible.  We’re trying to cast a global net, especially to 
people outside of the US and Europe.

Cheers,

Gunnar
