Training program in European laboratories for young investigators from countries with limited resources
The Organizing Committee of the 8th IBRO World Congress of Neuroscience launches a Training Program for selected young investigators from countries with limited resources. The Program will arrange, on the occasion of the 8th IBRO World Congressof Neuroscience, one-month stays in European laboratories, which will allow guest young investigators to meet senior and junior scientists and get familiar with the laboratory’s environment, facilities and techniques in different fields of brain research, to favour future exchanges and networking. Lodging expenses and travel fare to or from Florence ( before or after the IBRO Congress) will be covered by the Young Investigator Visiting Program.
The committee invites European laboratories to submit offers for hosting a young investigator. Please visit the Congress website and the IBRO website for more information.
