Computational and Systems Neuroscience (COSYNE) is a scientific conference, with the main meeting usually held in Salt Lake City. It is a single track-meeting with oral and poster sessions and attracts about 500-600 participants from a variety of disciplines. The meeting is followed by two days of workshops.

COSYNE grew out of the Neural Information and Coding (NIC) meetings founded by Anthony Zador in 1996 and organized by Wulfram Gerstner, Andreas Herz, Peter Latham, Zach Mainen, Mayank Mehta, Sheila Nirenberg, and Alex Pouget[1][2]. The first COSYNE was organized in 2004 by Michael Shadlen, Alexander Pouget, Carlos Brody and Anthony Zador[3]. The current Executive Committee consists of Alexander Pouget, Zachary Mainen, Anne Churchland and Anthony Zador.

COSYNE 2012 is organized by Rachel Wilson and Jim DiCarlo.
