<p><b>Last Call for nominations for the Valentin Braitenberg Award</b><br>
</p>
<p>____________<br>
</p>
<p>Since 2012, the <b>Bernstein Network Computational Neuroscience awards the Valentin Braitenberg Award</b> every two years, which honors outstanding scientific achievements in the field of computational neuroscience. Following Braitenberg’s scientific tradition,
special attention is paid to theoretical studies that reveal the functional significance of brain structures and their neuronal network dynamics. The award ceremony

</p>
<p><b>We welcome nominations for the Valentin Braitenberg Award for Computational Neuroscience 2023 until April 30, 2023. The award will be presented at the Bernstein Conference 2023 in Berlin.</b></p>
<p>_____________</p>
<p><b>Award criteria:</b></p>
<p>The major criterion for the selection of the awardee is the impact of the recipient’s research on the neurosciences. In the spirit of Valentin Braitenberg’s research, special emphasis is given to theoretical studies elucidating the functional implications
of brain structures and their neuronal network dynamics. The crucial work should preferentially have been carried out in a European institution.</p>
