Current course 2024

The current Munich Brain Course will take place on March 15th and 16th, 2024. The German part (Intensivkurs Neuroanatomie) and the English part (Munich Brain Course) will run in parallel. As in the past, not all neuroanatomical topics can be displayed in one course, so each year has its own focus.

Please note that the English part is already fully booked. Registration for the German part (Intensivkurs Neuroanatomie) is expected to be available from December 2023.
