10 – 14 JULY 2023 – RADBOUD SUMMER SCHOOL: BRAIN, BACTERIA AND BEHAVIOUR – UNDERSTANDING THE GUT-BRAIN AXIS


In this one-week Summer School, students will learn about the role of gut microbiota in mental health. They will also get hands-on experience with analysing gut microbiota data, and discuss amongst each other how to design, conduct and interpret experiments on the associations between the gut microbiome and the brain. Workshops and interactive lectures will be given by a group of international experts, including prof. dr. Leo Lahti (University of Turku, Finland), dr. Rochellys Diaz Heijtz (Karolinska Institute Sweden), and dr. Clara Belzer (Wageningen University, The Netherlands).

The course will take place from 10 – 14 July 2023 in Nijmegen, The Netherlands. We welcome master students, PhD students, postdocs and professionals from various backgrounds, who are interested in doing research on the gut-brain axis.

Registration is possible until 15 May 2023. Please note that the early bird discount for registration expires on 1 March.
