1st EBRAINS Student Conference on Interdisciplinary Brain Research

The EBRAINS Student Conference on Interdisciplinary Brain Research offers an open platform for early career researchers to exchange innovative ideas across disciplines relevant to brain research and neuroscience.

The human brain is an incredibly complex system, best understood through a blend of knowledge and practices from various scientific fields. The EBRAINS Student Conference on Interdisciplinary Brain Research offers an open platform for early career researchers to exchange innovative ideas across disciplines relevant to brain research and neuroscience. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with the data-driven, multidisciplinary approach to brain research fostered by EBRAINS, as well as gain hands-on experience with its platform and tools. The conference promotes extensive scientific dialogue, both intra- and interdisciplinary, among peers and faculty through lectures, workshops, hands-on training, and social events. The conference will take place on-site at Château de Valrose, University Côte d’Azur, in beautiful Nice, France. Organised by the EBRAINS Education Programme and the EBRAINS Student Ambassadors.

We invite original, high-quality submissions describing innovative research from all disciplines across neuroscience. These contributions can emphasise theoretical or empirical works relating to a wide spectrum of fields including but not limited to neuroscience, computer science, robotics, medicine, psychology, cognitive science, or philosophy. We particularly encourage submissions with a potential to inspire collaboration in the research community by introducing new and relevant problems, concepts, and ideas, even if the work is at an early stage of development.

The 3-day conference will take place from 11-23 March 2026 in Nice, France.
