I joined the BBD Summer School to broaden my perspective of the neuroscience field. The lectures were extremely varied, from choosing preclinical models to AI applications. The lecturers were open for informal discussion too. Especially the “Neuroscience Research Day” was a great experience to me. Next to the learning, the BBD Summer School also gave me the opportunity to extend my network and make new friends. Thank you for this experience!

The BBD Summer School was a great experience. The talks from researchers across different areas gave me a broader perspective in the field and helped looking beyond our own research focus to consider new angles. It was also a good chance to make contacts and new friends.
