The Conference "Women of NeurotechEU: Empower, Lead, Innovate" is an international event organized by the “Iuliu Hațieganu” University of Medicine and Pharmacy in Cluj-Napoca, under the umbrella of the NeurotechEU European University Alliance, in connection with International Women’s Day.

Taking place on 9–10 March 2026, the NeurotechEU alliance will host a two-day hybrid event that brings together women in leadership positions alongside researchers, clinicians, innovators, and decision-makers from across the alliance. The event will explore how leadership shapes the future of neurotechnology, science, and society. 

Through keynote lectures, interactive workshops, and dialogue-oriented discussions, the conference aims to create a meaningful space for exchange, reflection, and collaboration across disciplines. 

While the event places a special emphasis on women’s leadership, participation is open to all genders, reflecting the European value of Unity in Diversity. Early-career researchers, students, senior academics, and professionals are all encouraged to participate. More information on the program and registration is available here

Building leadership together: Women of NeurotechEU: Empower, Lead, Innovate is designed not only to celebrate achievements but also to support future leadership through shared experiences, practical insights, and long-term connections within the alliance. By bringing together perspectives from science, medicine, technology, and society, the event contributes to a more inclusive and responsible approach to leadership in neurotechnology.
