Goal: To promote neuroscience tool and technology dissemination, the BRAIN Initiative Alliance (BIA) is hosting Tools & Tech: A BRAIN Initiative Alliance Social at the 2019 Society for Neuroscience Annual Meeting. This is a venue for toolmakers to interact with the research community, as well as network with one another.

We seek neurotechnology developers and engineers to feature at the BIA social. If you are interested in participating as a featured toolmaker, fill out the short application form below.

Note: In order to be eligible, your tool must be ready for the community to use AND you must be available during the date & time of the social (see below). Tools or technologies that are appropriate for sharing at this event are typically in a state ready for distribution and/or use by multiple other members of the research community (i.e. at or beyond a pre-commercialization stage or have limited commercial distribution).

Deadline: Please complete your application by August 26, 2019.  You will be notified if you have been selected in early September.
