New Deadline January 31st, 2026. The Mediterranean Neuroscience Society offers support of €1000 to doctoral and postdoctoral students, members of the Society, wishing to participate in the FENS Forum (https://fensforum.org) which will take place in July 2026 in Barcelona.

• Present a communication as first author at FENS Forum,
• Originate from the Mediterranean area and have an affiliation at a Mediterranean institution.

We recommend booking refundable travel and accommodation, or travel insurance.
