MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences UnitThroughout the year the MRC CBU hosts a series of conferences that are aimed at sharing our research, methods, and technical knowledge, to maintain our open approach to science. We hope this information provides a better understanding of our work and improves collaborations with other scientists and institutes around the world. These conferences are usually registration only events with a limited number of places available and sometimes requiring an attendance fee.
Below you can find information on upcoming conferences, past conferences (some with video), and a link to any relevant external conferences.
Upcoming conferences
Please note that due to the ongoing to Covid-19 outbreak, conferences will either be held virtually, re-scheduled, or reluctantly cancelled if there are now not enough resources to manage the event. If you require information about any event then it is best to get in touch with the event organiser who will make this decision. If you are unsure about who is running an event please contact the CBU through the contact us page. We hope to have events back in person as soon as is safe to do so.
