NeurotechEU represents a European alliance of eight universities with a focus on neurotechnology. Whether you're a student, academic, or administrative staff member, NeurotechEU offers diverse opportunities for growth and collaboration. Visit our website for more information.

Basic information
The yearly StratNeuro retreat gathers neuroscience researchers from Karolinska Institutet, Umeå University, and the Royal Institute of Technology for a couple of days of networking and getting up to date with the latest research from across the spectrum of neuroscience topics aligning with the interests that the StratNeuro constellation represents.

At our retreat, you will attend top talks from local researchers and invited leading neuroscientists, covering research from the molecular level and up to the cognitive and social levels. You will have a chance to network and discuss your work with other experts during our popular poster mingle session.
Several KI Core Facilities and infrastructures serving the Neuroscience community will also be participating at the poster session.

The scientific programme will consist of three plenary sessions, a poster session, and two break-out sessions with two parallel mini symposia/workshops in each session.

Eligibility

  • PhD students and postdocs are required to submit an abstract for a poster in order to be eligible to attend the retreat.
  • Undergraduates, MSci students or research assistants are unfortunately not eligible to register to the 2025 retreat

Competitions
At this retreat you will have a chance to receive one of these honors and awards:

  • Best poster (two categories: pre-clinical & translational/clinical). The winners will receive a prize gift.
  • Best poster blitz (two categories: pre-clinical & translational/clinical). The winners will receive a prize gift.

If you are selected to participate in the poster blitz, you may be one of the ten Poster blitz presenters that will be selected among the abstracts. Selected abstract authors will receive instructions on how to prepare, at the beginning of May.
