Over three days, in-depth sessions will mix basic neurosciences and applied neurobiology to link with human diseases. Sessions will be a mixture of lectures, workshops and discussions. There will be an emphasis on informality with opportunity for participants to meet informally and make new contacts. Delegates are encouraged to submit an image for the competition; see details.



Who should attend:

Neuroscience workers interested in translational research, researchers working on human tissues, clinical neuroscience specialists updating their basic neuroscience understanding, trainees in clinical neurosciences, postdoctoral workers in neurosciences. There is a reduced registration fee for trainees and students. Undergraduates with an interest in Neurosciences or neuropathology may attend if sponsored by a Society member

Organising Group:
The Academic Committee of the BNS under the chairmanship of Prof James Nicoll is creating the scientific programme.
