A new category of students incorporated as part
of the NeuroID Program’s renewal
Neuro-Peers will be invited to participate in certain Neuro-ID activities, such as: seminars, professional workshops, and other activities that can help them expand their understanding of neurosciences and improve their personal and academic development. In addition, students that would like to begin training in a research laboratory will be guided toward a laboratory where research in their field of interest is performed and where a good mentor-mentee relationship can be established.
