Niigata Nouken Seminar for Neuroscience

Every year, BRI offers an event for young researchers across Japan to learn and explore topics at the forefront of neuroscience. Participants learn cutting-edge knowledge on specific topics from both BRI and external scientific experts at the forefront of neuroscience research through lectures and discussions. The seminar also features an on-site training course that provides an opportunity to participate in current experiments.

For the past three years, the events were held online due to the COVID and the 51st and the 52nd meetings aimed to facilitate internal interactions.
