Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation and Beyond
TWINNIBS project organizes a symposium on Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation and gender equality and diversity issues in science: Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation and Beyond
This half day event will gather 5 speakers from the international community in a hybrid in - person / online event to present their latest contributions to NIBS field and discuss gender equality and diversity issues in science focusing on neuroscience.
There will be short scientific talks by female NIBS scientists, a contribution from the project "Women in Neuroscience Repository" as well as discussion on raising gender equality and the diversity in the field.
