BNA2021 Festival of Neuroscience - call for symposia 1st March 2020!

In April 2021, in partnership with the UK Dementia Research Institute, and a plethora of partners societies, the British Neuroscience Association will host its fifth Festival of Neuroscience, this time taking neuroscience to the seaside in Brighton, UK.

How to get the topics you want in the BNA2021 scientific programme

What topics, speakers, research and techniques do you want featured at BNA2021? What did you feel was missing from last time?

There are two ways to get content in the main scientific programme*:

Symposia
Each symposium covers a specific area of neuroscience research. A symposium is 100 minutes in length and consists of four talks; each talk is therefore usually 20-25 minutes long. There is space for 30-36 symposia in the Festival programme

Workshops
Workshops should focus on topics of wide interest (e.g. policy, careers, funding, grant-writing, publishing, reproducibility, short courses, neuroethics etc.) Each workshop is 100 minutes in length. Their format can include presentations, panel Q&A, small group discussion, worked examples, or other formats. There are usually 3-5 workshops in the Festival Programme.

Deadline for submissions = 1st March 2020

postdoc
Lisbon, robotics institute
Job description
You study the principles underlying gaze reorienting performance of the human visual system in dynamic scenarios. A biomimetic oculomotor robot system and simulators have been developed following the main biomechanical properties of the human analogue. We explore how novel Deep-Learning Techniques can help in modelling the human brain control of such a complex and high dimensional system.

PhD-student or Postdoc
The Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience, Amsterdam
Job description
In this project we will simultaneously record from low-level and higher-level cortical areas of the temporal stream in monkeys trained on tasks that rely on object vision. We compare the activity of neurons in the different brain areas to the tuning of units in deep neural networks, to elucidate the contributions of feedforward and feedback connections between brain areas.

3x PhD student or Postdoc
The Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience, Amsterdam
Job description
Our recent theoretical insights have allowed a preliminary understanding of how animals learn to represent and memorize the key features of sensory stimuli for the guidance of action based on reinforcement learning. The present project focuses on the hierarchical learning of cognitive subroutines, which can be incorporated into larger routines, by trial and error.
