There is an international summer school on Functional Genomics at the Baia Samuele Conference Centre, Scicli, Sicily, Italy, July 5th-19th 2008. The webpage is http://www.functional-genomics.it/school, registration deadline May 20th.
Also in Italy, there is the Bertinoro International Summer School of Natural Computation – BNC 2008. It is to be held at the University Residential Center – Bertinoro (Forlì-Cesena), Italy, September 20-27, 2008. See the webpage at http://www.dmi.unict.it/~bnc/index.html for details.
Finally, in Porto, there is NN2008, the 2008 summer school on neural networks in classification, regression and data mining. July 7-11, Porto, Portugal. http://www.nn.isep.ipp.pt.

The objective of this interdisciplinary conference is to bring together researchers in computer science, artificial intelligence, alife, control, robotics, neurosciences, ethology, evolutionary biology, and related fields so as to further our understanding of the behaviors and underlying mechanisms that allow natural and artificial animals to adapt and survive in uncertain environments. The conference will focus on experiments with well-defined models — robot models, computer simulation models, mathematical models — designed to help characterize and compare various organizational principles or architectures underlying adaptive behavior in real animals and in synthetic agents, the animats. SAB’08 is in Osaka, July 7-12, 2008. Paper submission deadline is January 14th, workshop proposals are due to February 1st. For details, see the SAB’08 webpage.
