The three-day ECNP Workshop offers European early career scientists an unparalleled opportunity to develop their research careers in applied neuroscience.
Every year the ECNP Workshop on Applied Neuroscience brings together 100 top early career scientists for three days of immersive lectures and discussion on the latest advances and perspectives in experimental and clinical research into brain disorders and the science of their treatments.
As well as being able to engage with world-leading experts and early career peers from across Europe, participants have the chance to present their research through posters and short oral presentations. Selected participants will also be funded to present at the ECNP Congress’s New Findings Symposium and ECNP’s Got Talent Session, with four runners-up receiving an ECNP Excellence Award to help them also to attend. To support participants from developing economies, the workshop provides free registration, hotel accommodation in shared rooms, and travel subsidies.
More than just a conference, the ECNP Workshop on Applied Neuroscience is a vibrant community of early career scientists and senior researchers working together to advance the field of neuroscience and contribute to the betterment of brain health and treatment.
Join us for an enriching and inspiring experience advancing excellence in brain research and innovation shaping the future of applied neuroscience.
Experimental clinical neuroscience, highlighting recent findings in the field of clinical neuroscience.
Behavioural and systems, exploring novel insights into behaviour and the neurobiological mechanisms and neural circuits underlying its induction, control and coordination, with both animal and human studies examined.
Molecular and cellular, discussing new findings in molecular and cellular mechanisms related to the causes, characteristics and control of psychiatric and/or neurological disorders, including cellular, animal and human studies.
Neuromodulation (variable topic of 2025), presenting recent developments in deep brain stimulation and other therapeutic approaches targeting neural circuits underlying brain diseases.
Within each topic, two leading scientists will address specific themes and five early career scientists will present their research.
The Workshop Committee is charged with the organisation of the Workshop, designing its programme and reviewing all of its abstract submissions, with a view to encompassing forward-looking perspectives on specific topics, and promoting and encouraging the scientific development of European (pre-)doctorates and medical residents.
