*NeuroBridges 2023*
*A Mediterranean, Middle Eastern Summer School in Neuroscience*
*Deadline to apply: May 15, 2023*
*NeuroBridges 2023* is a summer school which will take place between
*September 3 and September 14, 2023* in Le Centre de Conferences
Internationales de Cluny, France (CCIC).
The school will provide an overview of theoretical and experimental
frameworks used to study a variety of *decision making* processes. It
will cover different model systems from rodents to humans and a plethora
of decision making mechanisms.
Another objective of Neurobridges is to bring together *Mediterranean
and Middle Eastern scientists*, in order to promote scientific
cooperation between young researchers from these countries. The
organizers of NeuroBridges are convinced that such scientific
collaborations can lead to personal relations, which eventually may
alleviate the political distress in the Middle East.
The school is intended for graduate students and postdocs, primarily,
but not only, from the Middle East and the Mediterranean region, either
working in their home countries or abroad. Applicants should have some
background in related fields in neuroscience or cognitive psychology.
*All costs of registration and accommodation will be covered by the
organizers. A limited number of travel grants will be also be available*.
*NeuroBridges 2023 Faculty:* Alaa Ahmed (U. Colorado), Carlos Brody
(Princeton), Iain Couzin (MPI), Roozbeh Kiani (NYU), Carole Levenes
(CNRS), Drazen Prelec (MIT), Rava Azeredo da Silveira (IOB and CNRS) and

*NeuroBridges* is co-organized by Ahmed El Hady (MPI, Konstanz,
Germany), Yonatan Loewenstein (Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel)
and David Hansel (CNRS, Paris, France).
