Join the BonnBrain Conference 2026 – From Genes to Circuits and Behavior
The BonnBrain Conference 2026 will take place in Bonn, Germany, from March 23–25, 2026 bringing together leading neuroscientists from across Europe and beyond to discuss the latest advances in brain research.
This interdisciplinary meeting, jointly organized by the University of Bonn, the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE), and the Max Planck Institute for Neurobiology of Behavior – caesar, will explore topics at the interface of genes, neural circuits, and behavior.
Researchers, postdocs, and students are warmly invited to apply and take part in this exciting event featuring keynote lectures, symposia, and poster sessions with top international scientists.
The KI NeurotechEU team will fund up to 10 KI participants (registration + travel expenses), ranging from students to junior principal investigators.
