The program of the conference consists of numerous sessions on biological, cognitive, computational and medical aspects of neuroscience, creating a dynamic environment for sharing knowledge. The schedule of the meeting is further complemented with lectures by invited guests. This year’s keynote speakers include:

• Karl Friston (University College London, the UK)
• Pico Caroni (University of Basel, Switzerland)
• Karin Roelofs (Radboud University Nijmegen, the Netherlands)
• Alejandro Schinder (Leloir Institute, Buenos Aires, Argentina)
• Adam Hampshire (Imperial College London, the UK)
• Dayu Lin (New York University School of Medicine, the USA)

Furthermore, a special panel concerning the Future of Neuroscience will be held. We have confirmed participation of three pioneering researchers:

• Viktor Jirsa (Aix-Marseille University, France)
• Panayiota Poirazi (Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, Heraklion, Greece)
• Dominik Paquet (Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, Germany)

During the upcoming 11th edition of the conference, we will traditionally continue to put emphasis on development of early-career researchers. The main purpose of this event is to provide means for both young and experienced neuroscientists to share the latest discoveries, knowledge and experience in neuroscience, as well as make valuable contacts with scientists representing various fields of neurobiology. We actively promote young scientists through preferentially allocating oral presentations of their experimental results.

We strongly encourage you to join this special initiative, and hope to see you soon!
