Mark your calendars! StratNeuro's annual retreat takes place on 29-30 May 2023 at Djurönäset in the Stockholm Archipelago. Registration will open early March.
The StratNeuro retreat is the place to be for neuroscientists from Karolinska Institutet (KI), Umeå University (UMU) and Royal Institute of Technology (KTH).
- You will attend top talks from local researchers and invited leading neuroscientists, covering research from the molecular level and up to the cognitive and social levels.
- You will have a chance to network and find collaborators during our popular poster mingle session.
This year, StratNeuro will welcome small delegations from all the NeurotechEU partner institutions (European university alliance of which KI is a member).
