DoY meet-up April 8th on Neurodiversity

The next DoY meet-up on April 8th (15:30-17:30) will be organised by Thriving and Healthy Youth. For this event, we combine forces with DiverseMinds, a new network of researchers that focuses on neurodiversity. 

Neurodiversity recognises and respects the natural variations in human brain function and behaviour. This perspective promotes the idea that these differences should be valued and accommodated, fostering an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive.

The first part of this DoY Meet-Up will feature several researchers from various faculties, whose research all has a connection to neurodiversity. Five short presentations will be followed by a roundtable discussion. During the subsequent networking drinks, there will be plenty of room to get to know the diversity of research(ers) within Dynamics of Youth or even join a neurodiversity research network.

Would you like a chance to win €5000 in research funding? During the meetup, there will be an opportunity to brainstorm together on an interdisciplinary research proposal related to neurodiversity. Meet new people, explore collaborations, and develop an idea! After the meetup, you will have three weeks to refine and submit your proposal. The winners will be selected through a lottery.

We especially invite PhD candidates and postdocs to connect with like-minded peers or senior researchers.
