I-Brain Erasmus project meeting

iBrain MiniSymposium

The iBrain MiniSymposium in cognitive neuroscience gives junior scientists to present their work in an interactive and constructive environement. This event is open to all trainees and incudes two interactive poster sessions and a roundtable focused on data issues in cognitive science.
The iBrain poster presentation is a platform for junior scientists to present their work to the community and actively engage in thorough discussions with other scientists.

Poster sessions will take place virtually in the CCCP/iBrain virtual room using the MOzillaHubs platform. Prior to the conference posters together with a brief pre-recorded poster-tour (max. 2 min) will be uploaded to the interactive platform. Access is limited to registered conference participants only.

For the conference poster sessions, specific time slots will be allocated for the presenters who will then be available at designated virtual presentations.
The virtual roundtable will focus on modern aspects of data collection and analysis and give the trainees and opportunity to discuss with senior scientists discussants in an informal and mentoring fashion.
