Sponsorship opportunities for education in the Human Brain Project The Human Brain Project (HBP) is a European Commission Future and Emerging Technologies Flagship. The HBP aims to put in place a cutting-edge, ICT-based scientific Research Infrastructure for brain research, cognitive neuroscience and brain-inspired computing. The Project promotes collaboration across the globe, and is committed to driving forward European industry https://www.humanbrainproject.eu The Human Brain Project Education Programme Office aims at building a highly collaborative, transdisciplinary research community. We offer various trans- disciplinary educational opportunities, including workshops, schools and annual student conferences. Further we are developing a transdisciplinary curriculum customised for the project by teaching science to non-specialists. Our education and training programme will establish direct communication channels among young researchers in transdisciplinary fields within and outside the HBP Flagship. https://education.humanbrainproject.eu Liaise with your target audience. The Human Brain Project Education Programme Office sponsorship opportunities position you and your organisation as industry leader and provide you with the possibility to connect with leading scientists and young investigators.
