The European Graduate School of Neuroscience (EURON) is a Graduate School consisting of institutes and departments of seven universities in Belgium (UC Louvain and University of Hasselt), Germany (RWTH Aachen University and Universität Köln), France (Université de Lille), Luxembourg (Université de Luxembourg) and the Netherlands (Maastricht University). EURON is coordinated by the Mental Health and Neuroscience Research Institute (MHeNs) from Maastricht University. By combining the expertise of our partners, EURON forms a multidisciplinary and complementary network with a perfect background to educate and train PhD students in the field of basic and translational neuroscience. EURON acts via the Executive Board consisting of the Director, the Coordinator and representatives (Local Coordinators) of each partner university.
EURON is dedicated to the training of early stage researchers in the field of basic and translational neuroscience. By sharing expertise, knowledge and infrastructure of the EURON partners we are able to offer a high level training programme with a broad orientation on neuroscience.
– We focus on education, scientific collaboration, and on enhancing skills in networking and research.
– We engage a multidisciplinary staff and work in an international context.
– We stimulate the transfer of knowledge between EURON partners.
