Building 20
Neuroscience Day 2025 will take place at KAUST , bringing together international researchers and the KAUST community to share discoveries at the intersection of brain circuits, behavior, health, and technology.
The program will feature lectures from leading scientists, alongside presentations from KAUST students and postdocs showcasing the next generation of neuroscience research.
The day’s sessions will cover emerging tools for monitoring and manipulating neural activity, including genetically encoded sensors and chemical approaches to dissect social and neuropeptide signaling; genetic, cellular, and circuit-level insights into behavior, sensory processing, and the impact of nicotine and cannabis on brain development; and new perspectives on brain health, spanning cerebrovascular dynamics, immune-brain interactions, and therapeutic strategies. The symposium will close with a panel discussion exploring how these diverse advances, from fundamental circuit mechanisms to translational approaches, shape the future of neuroscience.
