Cambridge Neuroscience Events for 2025

External Event - 8th Apr to 11th Sep 2025

1. We are delighted to announce that the ‘8th Biennial Cambridge Neuroscience Symposium, Interventions & Recovery’ will be held on the 10-11th September 2025 at West Road Concert Hall and Gala dinner at Trinity College and is now open for registration. I am sure you will agree that the programme is spectacular. This will be our second major event of 2025!

The Alan Hodgkin and Andrew Huxley plenary lectures are a major feature within the programme and we are delighted to welcome Professor Amy Arnsten (Yale) and Professor Lorenz Studer (Sloan Kettering) to Cambridge. These plenary lectures are named in honour of Sir Alan Hodgkin and Sir Andrew Huxley, 2 Cambridge alumni who received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1963 (jointly with John Eccles). 

This year, we are excited to launch the Cambridge Neuroscience Compston-Robbins Plenary Lecture. This lecture has been established to honour a member of Cambridge Neuroscience that has contributed significantly to the field. It has been named in honour of Professors Alastair Compston and Trevor Robbins, the two founding Directors of Cambridge Neuroscience. We are delighted to award this inaugural lecture to Professor Sir Stephen O’Rahilly. 

This international gathering is dedicated to exploring the latest advancements in cell and gene therapies, pharmaceutical innovations, and cutting-edge neurotechnology aimed at addressing neurological diseases. Featuring a diverse lineup of expert speakers and interactive sessions, the conference provides a platform for researchers, clinicians, and industry leaders to share insights, discuss challenges, and collaborate on pioneering solutions to improve nervous system health. Attendees will engage with the latest research and practical applications that promise to reshape the future of treatment for various neurological conditions.

Plus Don't forget, we also have our annual meeting in April 2025

2. Join us for 'CNS2025: Expanding the Horizons of Brain Research'. 

   This is the 35th annual Cambridge Neuroscience Meeting and it will be held in the beautiful Queens' College on Tuesday April 8th 2025.

   Registration is now open for this meeting. For those of you who joined us last year, I am sure you will agree that Queens' College did not disappoint.

   We have an incredible programme with invited plenary speakers Professors Mayank Mehta (UCLA) and Soyon Hong (UCL). In addition to that our Cambridge speakers range from 7 different departments and span the breadth of neuroscience research at Cambridge Neuroscience. We are taking this meeting to revisit our six themes - we have presentations on early brain development, animal models and addiction, remyelination in Multiple Sclerosis, fly connectomes, computational modelling in pain and understanding speech, homo cybernetics, human brain imaging, neuronal plasticity during life changing events, resilience in neurodegeneration, psychosis and the use of psychedelics,....and that is not even the whole programme! To get an insight into what is exciting in Cambridge Neuroscience, do take the opportunity to come and join us.
