Due to the pandemic situation and the difficulty related to planning large events, the organization committee decided to offer the possibility of on-site participation for PhD students of IMPRS NeuroCom only. In addition, a limited number of external participants is invited to join the summer school virtually.
External students interested in participating, are invited to submit a short statement of their motivation to attend the summer school, including a statement of diversity. Furthermore, external applicants are required to upload a pdf-document with their curriculum vitae. Selection of suitable participants will be based on scientific as well as diversity criteria.
