Retrospect 2019

The Munich Brain Course in 2019 took place on March 15th and 16th. As in the last years, the content was provided in a concentrated form on two days. The German part (Intensivkurs Neuroanatomie) and the English part (Munich Brain Course) ran in parallel. As in the past, not all neuroanatomical topics can be displayed in one course, so each year has its own focus.
