Erasmus MC - Department of Neuroscience

• Summerschool
• The first year
• The second year

During the second year the students conduct the experiments as proposed in their project description. After completing the research project they should be able to successfully finish their project with a presentation and with a Masters thesis, which is in the format of a paper that is of sufficient quality to be published in an international peer-reviewed journal. Students will also follow at least 10 technical workshops. The duration of each workshop is 2 weeks. Each workshop consists of practical training and a large emphasis on self study and preparation.
