Since 2010, the Bernstein Network Computational Neuroscience presents the Brains for Brains Young Researcher Award, which recognizes the special achievements of young scientists who have shown their outstanding potential at a very early career stage – even before starting their doctoral studies. This award aims to attract young international researchers to Germany, which plan to pursue a research career in Computational Neuroscience.
Young researchers should at least have one peer-reviewed publication as co-author or peer-reviewed conference abstract as first author. These must have been submitted before applicants started their doctoral studies as well as accepted or published in the year or preceding year of the call for applications.
The Brains for Brains Award is endowed with a travel grant of 2.000 € allowing the awardee a one-week trip to Germany including individually planned visits to laboratories within the Bernstein Network Computational Neuroscience. The award ceremony takes place during the Bernstein Conference when the young scientist will present the prize-winning research in a short talk to the scientific community.
