The NeuroDoWo has been organized by doctoral candidates for over 30 years under the patronage of the German Zoological Society (Deutsche Zoologische Gesellschaft, DZG) and German Neuroscience Society (Neurowissenschaftliche Gesellschaft e.V.). Our aim is to reach early career scientists with a diverse neuroscientific background, from Germany and abroad. The conference promotes communication across disciplines and to allow young scientists to gain experience in presenting and discussing their research in a talk or with a scientific poster. The next NeuroDoWo will take place in Leipzig from the 20th to the 23rd of August 2024.
To further spread the word about the NeuroDoWo, the new posters are available for you to download, print and hang up in your university, your institute or wherever other PhD-students in Neuroscience walk by. The posters have now been updated with all the speakers.
We hereby have the pleasure to announce Prof. Dr. Gaia Tavosanis as one of our Keynote Speakers at the NeuroDoWo 2022. Being a research group leader at the DZNE Bonn and a Professor of Neurogenetics at the University of Bonn, she is one of the leading experts in neuronal remodeling. With Drosophila melanogaster being her model system, she investigates the mechanisms in neuronal dynamics during development and adult life of the fly.
We are happy to announce Dr. Jan M. Ache from Würzburg University as presenter of our second career Q & A session. Jan M. Ache is a former attendee of the NeuroDoWo, former Janelia Research Campus Post-Doc and now a junior group leader. We are looking forward to learning more about his career development, starting a lab and finding funding.
I hereby have the pleasure to announce the first point of this year’s NeuroDoWo's programme. In addition to the research talks by our participants and our keynote speakers, we will have Q & A-sessions on different career paths after your PhD. Our first presenter in this category will be Dr. Christian Pichlo. He obtained his PhD in 2017 at the University of Cologne on the "Structural and biochemical characterization of metallopeptidases from enteropathogenic bacteria".
The registration is open! Please register here to attend this year's NeuroDoWo in Cologne! We are looking forward to meeting you and many other PhD-students working on a variety of projects within the field of Neuroscience. Please also spread the word and motivate other PhD-students to attend!
