IBRO-USCRC 14th Canadian School of Neuroscience: Development, Plasticity, and Repair of Neural Circuits

This is an advanced neuroscience course intended for 14 young trainees from Africa and Latin America with scientific leadership potential in their home countries. Key features of the School program are its emphasis on open scientific discussions with experts, a hands-on experience in the laboratory and the attendance and presentation of the student’s work at the Canadian Association for Neuroscience’s Annual Meeting, a meeting that brings together over 1000 researchers, mostly from across Canada and the United States. The School Faculty consists of neuroscientists from Montreal’s McGill University and the Université de Montréal who have taught in previous IBRO Schools. The language of the school is English.
