Affiche-sympo-final

   On June 11th, a Symposium on Industry in Neuroscience took place in Bordeaux. It was coupled with the 1st Symposium of the NBA (June 12), allowing Master students to present their research.

Symposium on industry in Neuroscience : June 11th, 2015

  Our main goal is to sensitize local Master and PhD students to the non-academic world. We invited world-class speakers highly active in the field, both from academia and industry, to jointly share knowledge and open up discussions on the interaction between industry and universities. Each talk was about 40-45 minutes, followed by questions from the audience. Sessions were spread over 2 half days with lunch/discussion between students and speakers. If you are a master or PhD student in Neuroscience, curious of what the industrial world could offer, it was made for you ! Here are the invited speakers and their talks subjects.
