Program Dates and Schedule
Dates: June 1 – July 24, 2026
Hours: Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
Full-Time Participation: Students must attend all scheduled activities, including laboratory sessions, seminars, workshops, and group discussions.
Important Note: Commitment requires prioritizing Program activities over other engagements, including personal vacations or extracurricular activities that conflict with the Program schedule. The NeuroNauts Program is funded by a grant through the National Institutes of Health; to fulfill our commitments to NIH, only students who can fully commit to the entire Program will be selected to participate.
The NeuroNauts Scholars Program recognizes that many students participate in academic competitions at the state and national levels. While full attendance is expected, the program will consider requests for brief excused absences to participate in national-level academic competitions such as science fairs, math competitions, FBLA, debate, and similar events. If you anticipate any such commitments during the program period, please note them in your application.
