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.
