We will create an open platform for both experienced and novice researchers to share experiences, discuss NIRS and enjoy hands-on workshops. We are delighted with our key note speakers, Prof. Scherder, Dr. van Wanrooij, Prof. Perrey and Prof. Cooper, who will provide valuable insight into NIRS and brain and muscle research. We are excited to share the program of our symposium ARTscientific with you (see <a href="http://www.artinis.com/symposium2017">http://www.artinis.com/symposium2017</a>)! You can expect three days full of NIRS talks, workshops and wining and dining in a beautiful environment on the country side of the Netherlands. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>We carefully selected some very interesting topics for our hands-on NIRS workshops. Several topics will be discussed, including but not limited to correcting for confounding factors, explanation of TSI/TOI, an overview of different analysis software packages, multimodal measurements and much more! We encourage you to submit your abstract(s) for poster and/or oral presentation to <a href="mailto:symposium@artinis.com">symposium@artinis.com</a>. There is an early bird discount until January 4<sup>th</sup>. Registration costs include accommodation, breakfast, lunch and dinner. Should you have any questions, please feel free to also contact me directly. It would be great seeing some of you there!<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>With best regards,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Jörn<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><b><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:NL'>--<br><span style='color:#255A9E'>Jörn M.
