Advanced Neuroscience – Motor & Pain (PhD Course)
March 23–27, 2026
This advanced course is designed for PhD students with a strong background in neuroscience who wish to strengthen their foundational knowledge, broaden their perspective, and engage with leading researchers in the field. While many participants use the course to deepen their general neuroscience understanding, others find the content directly applicable to their PhD projects.
The course is free of charge for:
- PhD students at Danish universities (except Copenhagen Business School)
- PhD students from NorDoc member faculties
Feedback from the 2025 course (Advanced Neuroscience – Molecular, Cellular and Synaptic Properties of Brain Function)
