NeuroBridges 2024

A MEDITERRANEAN, MIDDLE EASTERN SUMMER SCHOOL IN NEUROSCIENCE

Course Date:September 15-26, 2024

Venue: Cluny, France | Application is open!

Deadline to Apply: April 1st, 2024

NeuroBridges 2024 is a summer school which will take place between September 15 and September 26, 2024 in Le Centre de Conferences Internationales de Cluny, France (CCIC).

The school will provide an overview of theoretical and experimental frameworks used to study a variety of decision making processes. It will cover different model systems from rodents to humans and a plethora of decision making mechanisms.

Another objective of Neurobridges is to bring together Mediterranean and Middle Eastern scientists, in order to promote scientific cooperation between young researchers from these countries. The organizers of NeuroBridges are convinced that such scientific collaborations can lead to personal relations, which eventually may alleviate the political distress in the Middle East.

The school is intended for graduate students and postdocs, primarily, but not only, from the Middle East and the Mediterranean region, either working in their home countries or abroad. Applicants should have some background in related fields in neuroscience or cognitive psychology. All costs of registration and accommodation will be covered by the organizers. A limited number of travel grants will also be available.
