The ACNS 2025 logo competition winning design by ECR member Phuong (Mimi) Dang is featured above.
The logo was designed to represent ACNS as a conference to be held in Melbourne this year (2025). It embodies a popular neuroimaging technique used to explore a variety of cognitive and perceptual phenomena in the field of cognitive neuroscience: EEG. In particular, the logo features a head topography of EEG source localisation results in the typical colour scheme of ACNS. While EEG is best known for its high temporal resolution, source localisation can give insights into where active pools of signals may be located, whether in univariate or multivariate space. The logo uses these motifs to localise the site of conference activity this year: Melbourne on the tip of the Victorian state. While this may be the obvious hotspot, the logo acknowledges that the conference celebrates works from scientists from all over the Asian Pacific region. It stays true to the ‘Australasian’ name by including the bottom half of the Asian continent, Australia, and New Zealand in ‘active pools of signal’ – Mimi Dang
