Dear colleagues,

Please note that the early registration deadline (June 1st) for the conference "Data analysis in Cosmology 2007" to be held next summer (from July 9th to July 12th) in Santander (Spain) is approaching.

In particular the meeting will focus on:

* Statistical analysis (Bayesian statistics, PCA, ICA, etc)
* Neural networks
* Multi-scale analysis
* Inverse problem
* Morphological analysis
* Data fusion

Registration is open through the meeting's web page:
