Program and Objectives

This summer school offers a unique platform for participants to explore and integrate diverse approaches for studying human neuropathologies. The program includes:

  • Keynote sessions by eight senior researchers, giving students unique exposure to cutting-edge research and thought leaders in the field,
  • Poster sessions for students to present their work,
  • Interactive brainstorming on integrating new and advanced techniques into the participants’ own projects, wherein participants’ in-depth discussions and experts’ advice help push the projects to the next level,
  • Discussions on science and societal issues, and
  • Networking and social activities, including with group leaders who stay the entire week, allowing for the development of personal connections between senior scientists and a more thorough mentoring
