NeurotechEU celebrates its IX Board of Rectors at the University of Bonn

Key Outcomes 

From May 13 to May 15, several meetings took place, and many topics were addressed. The joint master's programme, upcoming mobility opportunities, and the new partner are some of the key topics that the attendees addressed. 

The Medical University of Innsbruck: the new NeurotechEU partner 

During the meeting of the delegations from the universities belonging to the NeurotechEU alliance, the Medical University of Innsbruck (Austria) confirmed its upcoming incorporation into the Alliance. The Rector-elect of said university, Gert Mayer, presented the institution, highlighting its strengths and what its contribution to the alliance will be, including its close link between basic science and clinical and applied research in neurosciences and molecular biology.  

The Student Council’s Art Project 

On the other side, the student representatives of the Alliance presented an artistic project in which students from the Student Council of each NeurotechEU member university displayed a part of the brain. The Art Project included music, different smells, and even a quiz.  

The European NeurotechEU alliance is a project co-financed by the European Union’s Erasmus+ Programme, which seeks to provide the scientific community with a centre for higher education and research focused on neurotechnology, with the aim of solving health problems related to neuroscience and mental health through affordable technologies.
