NeurotechEU summit - Research symposia "From Cells to Circuits to the Whole Brain"
This symposium brings together researchers working across cellular, circuit, and whole-brain imaging to show how brain structure and function emerge across scales. Short talks in the morning, afternoon focused on networking/collaboration building, and late afternoon visits to SciLifeLab imaging infrastructure.
