Effects of early life stress are found to be dependent on many factors, including sex and genetic background, the age of early exposure, and the age and context within which the long-term impact is examined. Organised by the FENS Committee for Higher Education and Training (CHET), hosted on Neuronline.

FENS is the voice of European neuroscience, representing more than 20,000 European neuroscientists. Its activities span five broad areas: scientific meetings, higher education and training, the European Journal of Neuroscience, outreach and advocacy and membership.

This webinar focuses on how neural circuits underlying innate behaviours develop and how they modulate parental behaviour in adulthood.

Organised by the FENS Committee for Higher Education and Training (CHET).

Whether a first-time or long-time submitter, the FENS Friday webinar “Handling, review and publication of EJN manuscripts” will provide you with all the necessary information to publish in the European Journal of Neuroscience (EJN).

The FENS Friday webinar “Brain development and neuropsychiatric disorders” presented the state-of-the-art knowledge on the brain’s development and how genetic disturbances and/or environmental influences are thought to underlie several neuropsychiatric disorders. Organised by the FENS Committee for Higher Education and Training (CHET).

This FENS Friday webinar is aimed for neuroscientists at any stage who wish to engage the wider audience with their research, particularly for those who are new to science communication. Organised by the Communication Committee with the support of the Dana Foundation.

Epilepsy is not only a common, often devastating disease but also a comorbidity of many neurological disorders, in which control of seizures may significantly improve quality of life and even prognosis. Recent years have witnessed major advancements in the identification of the mechanisms of disease that hold the promise to lead to new treatments. Organised by the FENS Committee for Higher Education and Training (CHET), this FENS Friday webinar provided an overview of these findings and of their potential implications not only for epilepsy but also for other neurological diseases.

Organised by the European Brain Council (EBC), the European Brain Research Area project (EBRA) and chaired by FENS President, Prof. Jean-Antoine Girault, this FENS Friday webinar focused on the importance of coordination and collaboration in the brain space highlighting the Shared European Brain Research Agenda (SEBRA).
