Modern times call for modern science and innovation is much needed now, even more than before. Neuroscience innovation can be achieved through holistic collaboration and early-stage funding. To nurture the innovative phases of neuroscience, IBRO continues its efforts to the promotion of neuroscience through programs across the world’s regions by working closely with FENS,  SfN, The Dana Foundation and many others to impact in a positive way the outcome of neuroscience globally.

The IBRO programs that are available and can be accessed in the upcoming period within the Africa, Asia -Pacific,  Latin America and Pan Europe regions are the following:

Events
The IBRO-UI Neurobiology of Stress Symposium 

The Neurobiology of Stress symposium ‘From Neuropathological Perspectives to Methodologies and Molecular Adaptogenic Mechanisms’ brings together experts and students of stress and stress-related research to discuss critical aspects of neurological consequences of chronic stress destined for masters, Ph.D. students, and postdocs in neuroscience, medical and life sciences across African (mainly West African) institutions.

Application dates: 14th March – 14th April, 2022 (12:00 p.m Africa time).
