Neuroscience Research Conference

The annual UC Berkeley Neuroscience Research Conference brings the entire campus neuroscience community together for a 2-day gathering of research talks, poster presentations, informal discussions, and social activities. The conference is held at a local conference center in California.

Neuroscience Seminar Series

HWNI and the Neuroscience Department jointly host a biweekly Neuroscience seminar series, with notable speakers from across the world. In addition, the Neuroscience PhD Program runs a separate Neuroscience Graduate Student Seminar Series, in which graduate students select, invite, and host speakers (2-4 speakers per year). Hosted speakers join PhD students in group discussions, presentations, and social events, in addition to the seminar. Seminars are held on Thursdays at 3:30 PM in 101 Barker Hall. 

Other Seminar Series

Neuroscience seminars are also hosted by a variety of other groups, including  the Vision Science Graduate Program, the Redwood Center for Theoretical Neuroscience, and the Weill Neurohub.
