Closing the Gap: Strategies for Global Gender Equity in Brain Research

30 April 2024 - 09:00 EDT | 15:00 CEST | 18:30 IST

Last year’s webinar Unfinished Business: Persistent Global Gender Disparities in Neuroscience delved into the underlying causes of the gap. It unequivocally demonstrated the existence of the glass ceiling in academia across the world and underscored the urgent need for proactive measures to shatter it.
This upcoming session will shift its focus to actionable steps and programs designed to promote gender equity. By analysing these case studies and best practices, we aim to provide concrete strategies for addressing systemic challenges and ultimately closing the gender gap in brain research.

6th International Functional Architecture of Memory Conference

19-21 June 2024, Magdeburg, Germany

The 6th FAM conference will feature 15 world leading experts in human and animal memory who have already RSVP (from USA, Canada, Japan, Norway, UK, Austria and Germany). This event is unique in this it aims at bringing new insights on major controversies in human recognition memory as well as bridging further human and animal memory by integrating findings from computational, molecular, neuroanatomical, electrophysiological and imaging studies using state-of-art technical approaches. Especially, this platform gives the unique opportunity to scientists to integrate data emerging from studies in humans and animals on the same MTL areas that however pertain to different thematic foci in memory research, for example the contribution of the MTL areas to the formation and retrieval of memory, the processing of space and time and how this contribution evolves with age and within the frame of pathologies. An integration of the findings emerging from these different subject areas will allow for a very thorough and more complete picture of the precise contribution of each MTL area to different aspects of memory and the mechanisms underlying these memory processes.
The event is also very ‘students-oriented’, with the organization of a daily ‘students /speakers-only brainstorming session’ lasting for an hour. During these ‘student/speakers –only session’ students have the unique opportunity to meet, in small groups, the speakers of their choice with no other presence than that of their peers to encourage active participation and get a direct feedback from speakers on their own take on memory function.

"Stress and Resilience: Exploring New Horizons in Science and Application"

The two-day conference titled “Stress and Resilience: Exploring New Horizons in Science and Applications” that will be held at EPFL, Lausanne on April 15-16, 2024 aims to address the timely issue of stress and resilience in contemporary society. Our program will showcase cutting-edge research on stress and resilience, providing insights into stress sources across diverse contexts and discussing targeted interventions for promoting mental health. We are delighted to confirm the participation of distinguished international speakers and we will also give the opportunity to young researchers to present their work through talks selected from abstracts. Do not miss this opportunity and join us for this exciting event! Registration and information: here
