WWNeuRise is a seminar series that hosts talks by early-career researchers. We are always searching for PhD students and postdocs to give talks in our upcoming seminars on any topic in systems neuroscience. On our website (https://neurise.github.io/), you can find an application form to directly apply, as well as a recommendation form, where you can suggest individuals from your lab, institute, or otherwise who you think might have an interesting story to tell!

We are looking forward to seeing you at our special event on May 11th, as well as our other upcoming seminars!
