Registration categories
The following categories for participants apply:
Member: A member of one of the societies affiliated with FENS. A member of the American Society for Neuroscience (SfN) may also benefit from the same registration fees as FENS members. Please note however, that this option is offered only to SfN members who live and have their professional activity in a country where there is no neuroscience society member of FENS (see the list of national societies members of FENS).
Non-member: A participant from academic or non-profit organizations.
Student: A pre-doctoral student.
Postdoctoral fellows, hospital residents, interns and laboratory technicians do not qualify for the student rate.
Pre-doctoral students registering online, must upload a letter proving their status (i.e. a signed statement from their Department Head or supervisor). Upon on-site registration such a proof should be presented as well.
Note: The proof of student status is unrelated to the request for FENS travel grant. For grants, refer to the travel grants page.
Corporate: A participant from a corporate company.
