Neural Engineering Summer School
25th – 27th August
Brno, Czech Republic
What is NESS?
The Neural Engineering Summer School (NESS) is all about bringing the exciting world of Neural Engineering to curious and ambitious students.
Instead of just sitting through lectures, you’ll dive into hands-on projects and interactive workshops designed to spark your curiosity and inspire new ideas.
Our goal? To help shape the next generation of engineers and scientists who will push this field forward.
Who is it for?
Neural engineering is a mix of many different fields—it brings together engineering, physics, chemistry, materials science, electronics, robotics, biomedical engineering, computer science, biology, neuroscience, medicine, and more.
If you’re an undergraduate student passionate about any of these areas, and you love the idea of combining technology with neuroscience, then NESS is for you! We welcome students from all over the world who are eager to learn, experiment, and collaborate in a dynamic, hands-on environment.
What will you learn?
Forget long, boring lectures—NESS is all about learning by doing! You’ll take part in interactive workshops where you get to build, test, and explore different aspects of neural engineering. You can choose from workshops like:
- Microfabrication of implantable devices in a cleanroom
- Building and testing Brain-Machine Interfaces (BMIs)
- Discovering electrophysiology of invertebrates
- Exploring the brain with Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
- Measuring brain activity with Electroencephalography (EEG)
- Using Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) to induce muscle movements
- Growing and studying neuronal cells cultures in the lab
