Partner Societies for BNA2019
The Festival is unique in creating a forum where multiple organisations join together to create a cross-disciplinary and celebratory neuroscience event, generating a genuinely diverse and stimulating mix of interests.
Festival Partners
For the 2019 BNA Festival, Neuroscience Ireland (NSI) and the British Society for Neuroendocrinology (BSN) have joined the BNA as Festival Partners.
Both societies have high level involvement in orgnaising the event, and both have convened a number of symposia and plenaries in a dedicated NSI stream and a BSN stream running throughout the Festival. All members of NSI and BSN can attend the meeting at reduced BNA-member registration rates.
Partner Societies
Partner Societies are a hugely important part of BNA2019 - bringing together different organistions with a shared interest in the brain and nervous system is what makes the BNA Festival a true Festival of Neuroscience. Each Partner Society -
- convenes a symposium during the Festival programme, with free registration for speakers
- is able to invite all their society members to attend the Festival at reduced BNA-member registration rates
- will have their banner on display at the meeting, can have a full exhibition package for recuded fees, and is included in all Festival information and promotion
For further details of all symposia, please see the scientific programme.
