Neuroscience Academy Denmark is looking for members of the organising committee for the NAD national PhD course in Advanced Neuroscience.
This time, we are looking for established researchers with experience in the topic ‘Sensory processing, generation of movement and homeostatic control’ who wish to take a leading role in shaping content and identifying relevant speakers for the course, to take place in the Spring of 2026. Members will not be required to (but may) commit teaching resources themselves.
To apply to become a member of the organising committee, please send us an email listing your name, position and research interests. Members will be appointed by the NAD Education and Training Committee.
About the NAD PhD Courses in Advanced Neuroscience
The Advanced Neuroscience courses aim to establish understanding and insight at an advanced level within a range of topics for neuroscience PhD students across the Danish universities. The courses are intended as an annually recurring event, rotating between three overarching topics. The idea is that PhD students by taking the three courses will gain an overview of contemporary neuroscience, thereby fostering their identity as neuroscientists. In addition, the courses will create networking opportunities between neuroscience communities at different Danish universities.
The three topics are:
- Molecular, cellular and synaptic properties of brain function (2025)
- Sensory processing, generation of movement and homeostatic control (2026)
- Higher brain functions: learning, memory, language and cognition (2027)
