Akademie der Wissenschaften und der Literatur | Mainz

The international neuroscience symposium is dedicated to research on the processing of information in the brain. Understanding information processing, thinking, remembering or consciousness are some of the toughest riddles for humankind. Solving them will help us to understand ourselves – as well as dysfunctions in brain and mind occurring from birth or during aging.

The symposiums will bring together neuroscientists with experimental and computational expertise. It aims to bridge the gap from synaptic transmission to cognition. Thus, it will cross borders among neuroscientific disciplines to inspire discussions on state-of-the-art findings about information perception, processing, consolidation and transfer for storage.

Participants are invited for vivid discussions to advance the insight of brain dynamics and information processing.

Registration is open and required for participation. Applicants are encouraged to submit an abstract for poster presentation during the meeting to veranstaltungenadwmainz.de. Due to the limited availability of space a selection process based on the abstracts might be necessary.

Registration deadline is 1 November 2022. The participation of the symposium is free of charge.

The Bernstein Lecture with Prof. Matthew Larkum, Ph.D. on Why do anaesthetics selectively remove consciousness? (Warum schalten Narkosen selektiv das Bewusstsein aus?), which will take place as part of the symposium on 9 November at 7 pm, is open to the public. Like the conference itself, the lecture will be held in English. However, questions can also be asked in German.

More information on the conference programme can be found in the flyer.
