Conferences and Student Retreat
We help you to train your presentation skills and establish interdisciplinary connections and cooperations.
Conference participation
Doctoral students are required to present their data in a poster as well as give a talk at least once during their doctorate. Opportunities for presentation are appropriate international conferences in your field of studies, the annual Bonn Brain3 meeting, Sunposium, or the yearly BIGS Neuroscience Student Retreat.

BIGS Neuroscience Student Retreat
BIGS Neuroscience performs an annual student retreat, which is a great opportunity for students to get feedback on their research, learn more about the various projects in Bonn and spark fiery scientific debates with other PhD students. In addition, its aim is to connect BIGS Neuroscience students with the PhD students of the IMPRS for Brain and Behavior program and the students of the Master Neuroscience program in Bonn.
The BIGS Neuroscience Student Council organizes the annual Student Retreat in cooperation with the IMPRS for Brain and Behavior Student Council and the Master Neuroscience students.
Further information on the annual retreat can be found in the Events and News section.
