Transatlantic Behavioural Neuroscience School 2026 PhD students and early-stage researchers are especially encouraged to apply. European students can obtain travel grants and fee waivers via FENS. The school is divided in five blocks:3D printing, where you will have an opportunity to learn the theory necessary to take full advantage of this technique and how to use Autodesk Fusion software to design elements of your behavioural setupElectronics and Arduino, that is intended to provide the skills necessary to understand the design of devices used in behavioural research; it will also teach how to build and program such devices – among others, optogenetics laser controllers, automated doors, stimulus delivery systems and devices used for synchronizing data streamsBonsai module that aims at teaching you how to use Bonsai to track your animals, conduct closed-loop experiments with Arduino and analyze your dataDeeplabcut and machine learning, where you will gain an in-depth understanding of the DL tools used in behavioural science and learn how to apply them to extract interesting information from your dataProject is the module where you will apply all the knowledge gained during the course to build a 3D-printed setup for studying phototactic behaviour in Drosophila, conduct experiments and analyze the dataSchool will be also composed of a series of lectures by researchers studying animal behaviour on different model systems and with different approaches.Deadline to apply to attend is 15 March 2026. Event takes place 11 to 22nd August 2026. Mar 15 2026 Transatlantic Behavioural Neuroscience School 2026 11 to 22 August 2026 - this school has one goal: to teach young researchers everything they need to design and build their own behavioural setups, conduct complex experiments and analyze their data using open software and hardware. Apply to attend before 15 March 2026 Mikolajki, Poland Further details and registration
