Welcome to the 1st Systems- IN-Action Meeting!

Neuroscience is entering a transformative era—one in which we can watch the brain in action and, through the power of computation, uncover how neural circuits turn sensation into perception and perception into action. The Systems-IN-Action Meeting builds on this momentum, gathering leading scientists using state-of-the-art tools to uncover how brain-wide networks drive behavior—from sensorimotor control to decision making, navigation, and attention.. Over three days, leading scientists from around the world will share discoveries and discuss how emerging tools and computational approaches are redefining our understanding of the brain in motion.

This meeting is designed to spark interaction—where theory meets experiment, and established leaders and early-career scientists exchange ideas in an open, collaborative atmosphere. From circuit dynamics to systems and behavior, from technological innovation to conceptual insight, the program encourages curiosity-driven dialogue and the pursuit of new research directions.

We intend to also provide a half-day training day to give early-career researchers the opportunity to learn practical systems neuroscience techniques alongside experts. The meeting aims to catalyze new connections, fresh perspectives, and the next generation of discoveries in systems neuroscience.

Conference registration will remain open until January 15th or until full capacity is reached (maximum 120 participants). Early registration is strongly recommended.

Registration and abstract submission deadline extended to January 30th
