OVERVIEW:
In a series of virtual panel discussions, a collaborative effort between the International Brain Initiative, the World Women in Neuroscience, and UBC Neuroethics Canada brings together a wide range of voices in dialogue on the impact of women in neuroscience innovation, and will feature distinguished women neuroscientists to explore the intersections of AI, brain, technology, and ethics, and neuroscience, diversity, and society. Through brief presentations and dynamic audience engagement, this series will create a space where ideas are strengthened through conversation across disciplines and borders.
These free virtual events are open to the full neuroscience network of faculty members, students, research trainees, patient and public stakeholders, and other professionals from organizations located on all continents of the world.
Beyond knowledge exchange, this initiative will foster global collaboration and mentorship.
