We learnt so much & had engaging discussions about career paths after the PhD, & about the challenges & importance of SciComm. Thank you to our wonderful panelists! We also had two fruitful poster sessions w/ many great discussions & networking opportunities. Thank you to all! 🧠
And that’s a wrap! Thank you to everyone who attended the Brain & Mind Symposium! We heard many stimulating talks by international researchers on the topics of brain imaging, neuroplasticity & neurodevelopment. Thank you to all of our fantastic speakers 👏🧠
Science communication panel take home messages: Be you, but be a bit crazy! Spy on other scientists who do scicomm. Just start, you can practice with your mom, neighbor, friends.. Science communication is everywhere! Keep the language simple.
And lastly, the take home messages from the panel discussions.. Career paths: It's okay to explore different paths, your true passion might be somewhere unexpected. You can have it all, as long as you find your own way PhD is valued outside academia too. And learn programming!
Day 2 highlights! ✨🧠 Pawel Burkhardt opened the second day with a talk about the appearance of first neurons #bmsymposium2024
Sebastian Jessberger talked about how neurons were generated throughout the life and their biological aging #bmsymposium2024
Igor Branchi talked about the role of serotonin and psychotherapy in patients with depression expressing different levels of plasticity #bmsymposium2024
Highlights from day 1! 🤩 #bmsymposium2024 Laura Säisänen gave a thorough walkthrough of transcranial magnetic stimulation and its application in clinical use 🧠
Tomi Rantamäki opening the symposium #bmsymposium2024
We’ll have 3 inspiring scientific modules about brain imaging, neuroplasticity, and neurodevelopment. blogs.helsinki.fi/bm-symposium20… 2 interactive panel discussions about the career paths and science communication. Both days have poster sessions, voting for the best poster! 🏆
We are excited! 🧠 B&M symposium 2024 kicks off tomorrow! ✨ More info: blogs.helsinki.fi/bm-symposium20… We’ll accept questions online presemo.helsinki.fi/bmsymposium24 Looking forward seeing you there! 🙌 #bmsymposium2024
