The Cajal Advanced Neuroscience Training Programme represents a partnership between FENS, IBRO, the Gatsby Charitable Foundation, the University of Bordeaux, and the Champalimaud Foundation. It promotes advanced training during two to three weeks long courses, to a group of about twenty international students in two major European neuroscience dedicated facilities: Lisbon and Bordeaux.

The programme includes cutting-edge techniques and concepts relevant to modern neuroscience in a diverse array of disciplines. Courses are project-based and chaired by excellent and highly visible mentors, who are leaders in their respective fields.
