Munich Brain Day 2024

We are excited to announce the continuation of the Munich Center for Neurosciences initiative: The 2nd Munich Brain Day on April 30, 2024.

The one-day event aims to bring the Munich neuroscience community together, fostering the exchange of ideas and catalyzing innovative interdisciplinary research. The format will raise the profile of early career scientists, with a particular emphasis on increasing diversity.

In addition to 20-minute short talks, students and postdocs will have the opportunity to present their work in a datablitz and poster session. Lucrative prizes will go to the best posters.

The day will be rounded out by a plenary lecture by Paola Arlotta (Harvard), who will be awarded an honorary doctorate by the Graduate School of Systemic Neurosciences (GSN-LMU) as part of the event. The lecture is hosted by Prof. Benedikt Grothe, Founder and Director of MCN-LMU and GSN-LMU, and the laudatio will be held by Prof. Magdalena Götz.

Once more, the event will be held in the T-building at the Max Planck Institute for Biological Intelligence in Martinsried, starting at 9am. We will end the day with a social event - so come along and check out all the cool neuroscience in Munich, make some new friends, and leave with an idea that will change the way we think.
