We are very pleased to announce the new seminar series WWNeuRise that explicitly targets PhD students and postdocs (https://neurise.github.io/). WWNeuRise aims to give early career scientists an opportunity to share their exciting work with a large audience and make connections with people interested in similar questions. The seminar series will be hosted on WWNeuro and sponsored by eLife.

The first seminar block, entitled "Neuroscience at the intersection of experiment and theory", will start in January 2021 and features six exciting talks by

Nicolas Meirhaeghe (Jazayeri lab, MIT)

Federico Stella (Battaglia lab, Donders Institute)

Soledad Gonzalo Cogno (Moser lab, NTNU)

Zoe Ashwood (Pillow lab, Princeton University)

Claire Hales (Robinson lab, University of Bristol)

Arseny Finkelstein (Svododa lab, Janelia HHMI)

For more information, please visit the WWNeuRise website (https://neurise.github.io/) or twitter (https://twitter.com/WWNeuRise).

We are looking forward to seeing you all in January!
