Timezone
CEST
Location
Online
Target Group
From undergraduates to PhDs as well as postdoctoral and senior scientists from the EUGLOH alliance universities
Host
Université Paris-Saclay
Registration
Closed  (Deadline: 15 May 2021 23:59)

Participants will be immersed in the discovery of the structure, functioning and capacities of the brain. The Neuroscience summer school will provide insights into a broad range of topics, including developmental, cognitive, integrative and computational neurosciences. Theoretical lectures will be accompanied by practical sessions and round table discussions.

Certificate

Certificates and 4 ECTS will be provided for those who attend the theoretical and practical sessions of the school. Participants who follow only theoretical lectures will receive the certificate and 2 ECTS.
