5th HBP STUDENT CONFERENCE
ON INTERDISCIPLINARY
BRAIN RESEARCH
1–4 FEBRUARY 2021
VIRTUAL EVENT
REGISTRATION DEADLINE:
14 JANUARY 2021
VIRTUAL
EVENTPRELIMINARY SCIENTIFIC PROGRAMME
The human brain is such a complex system that it can only be understood by combining knowledge and
practices from multiple scientific fields. The 5th HBP Student Conference provides an open forum for
the exchange of new ideas amongst early career researchers across various sciences relevant to the
Human Brain Project (HBP). Attendees will be exposed to the data-driven brain research approach of the
HBP and have the opportunity to test the EBRAINS platform thoroughly. The conference offers room for
extensive scientific dialogue, both intra- and interdisciplinary, through a variety of discussion sessions,
lectures and social events. It will take place virtually, organised and supported by the HBP Education
Programme.
The conference will take place virtually over four days, with a versatile online schedule
from 1 to 4 February 2021.
REGISTRATION
Participation in the 5th HBP Student Conference is open to the entire student community and
early career researchers, regardless of whether they are affiliated with the HBP or not. We
particularly encourage young scientists to register and aim at an equal gender representation.
To register for the conference, an EBRAINS account is needed. Please create your
account (free of charge) and register for the 5th HBP Student Conference (also free of
charge). Please check the FAQs on the event website for further instructions.
Registration deadline: 14 January 2021
Please note that registration for the conference is free but mandatory.
