The Bernstein Conference started out as the annual meeting of the Bernstein Network Computational Neuroscience and has become the largest annual Computational Neuroscience conference in Europe with more than 500 international participants in recent years. This year the conference is organized by the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience Göttingen. The main conference (Sep 13-15, 2017) will be accompanied by satellite workshops (Sep 12-13, 2017) and a PhD symposium (Sep 12 & 15, 2017). An important part of the main conference will be the two poster sessions.

We are now inviting the submission of abstracts from all relevant areas. Authors of most accepted abstracts will get the chance for a poster presentation, a small number of abstracts will be selected for contributed talks during the main conference. Please note the earlier submission deadline for authors applying for a talk. All accepted abstracts will be published online and will be citable via Digital Object Identifiers (DOI).

DETAILS FOR ABSTRACT SUBMISSION:
Please note that the submission of an abstract does not replace the conference registration (www.bernstein-conference.de/registration).

TRAVEL GRANTS

CONFERENCE DETAILS:
Conference registration is OPEN

Early registration deadline: July 09, 2017

ACCOMMODATION AND HOTEL RESERVATION:
We strongly recommend early room booking! 
The number of available accommodation is limited due to several concurrent events. And many Hotels in Göttingen are already booked out for that week!
We arranged for room contingents in a variety of hotels that you may book by yourself by email or phone.
Please follow the instructions at our Accommodations Website (http://www.nncn.de/de/bernstein-conference/2017/venue/accommodation). 
We would like to emphasize that these room contingents will be held open up to different expiration dates depending
on the hotel (or until they are filled). Many expiration dates are already mid of June 2017.
We strongly encourage participants to share rooms and to book rooms as a group.
We emphasize that it will be very difficult to book accommodation beyond the expiration dates. 
Please find a list of the hotels at our Accommodations Website.
