​

We invite all interested parties to submit abstracts to the 6th BRAINN Congress. Papers will be presented in poster form (undergrad and initial post-graduate projects) or in an oral session (advanced post-graduate projects).

 

  • Poster presenters will be also required to present a quick (60 seconds) oral preview of their abstract.

  • Oral presenters will not have to give this oral preview. They will have a 10-minute time slot (7-minute presentation + 3-minute questions) assigned for their presentation.

  • All presentations must be given in English. The posters and slides must also be in English.

 

Accepted abstracts will be published in the Journal of Epilepsy and Clinical Neurophysiology*.

 

(*) Due to a problem with the bidding process for publication of the journal, there was a delay with the publication of the abstracts from 2018. They will be published together with the abstracts from 2019.

​

A prize will be given for the best abstract in each of the following categories: undergraduate research, Master degree research, PhD research, post-doctoral research.
