The 2nd International Conference on Neuroscience, Neuroinformatics, Neurotechnology and Neuro-Psycho-Pharmacology is organized by the Romanian Academy – National Center for Brain Research, in collaboration with the Foundation of the Romanian Society of Neurology, the Romanian Society for Neuroscience and the Romanian Society for Automation and Technical Informatics.

The aim of the conference is to bring together experts from various areas of brain science, neuroscience, clinical neurology, psychology, pharmacology with engineers in systems science, neuroinformatics, computer science and technology in order to debate aspects of the brain and mind, to identify efficient theories, models and tools that will contribute to a better understanding of the brain and its functioning.

The conference will be organized in Bucharest on 18-20 November 2021. The opening ceremony and the invited papers will be presented in the Library Aula of the Romanian Academy.
