On November 29, registration will open for our 2024 FENS Forum (June 25-29, 2024, Messe Wien). We host this meeting with our partner, the Hungarian Neuroscience Society. You already find plenty of information on the meeting, including the Preliminary Program with all Plenary Lectures and Symposia, on the Forum Website.

A major task for the two Host Societies ANA and MITT is the organization of the ECTP (Early Career Training Program), where labs in Austria and Hungary host young scientists for a 2-3 weeks period prior to the FENS Forum. Both FENS and IBRO support the program by providing individual travel grants á 1,000 Euro for each successful visitor.

Besides opening opportunities for our guests, the program is also a unique chance to showcase neuroscience research in Austria. Hence, all attendees of the Forum can see the (hopefully) comprehensive list of labs where neuroscience research takes place in Austria. The list may thus be seen as a compass of our neuroscience community at large.

In order to give our labs the opportunity to still register for the program we extend the deadline for registration to October 27, 2023. For further information on the program and to register please fill out the online form following this link.

Looking forward to your participation in the program, sincerely yours

Isabella Sarto-Jackson, ANA President
