About

The Brainbox Initiative Conference is an annual meeting that puts the work being carried out by early and mid-career researchers at the forefront. The conference focuses on brain stimulation techniques, including TMS, tES, TUS/tFUS and neuroimaging.

Since its inception in 2017, the conference has been a platform for early and mid-career researchers to present their work alongside world-renowned experts, fostering innovation and collaboration.

  • The Brainbox Initiative partners with leading neuroscience researchers to deliver a dynamic programme of events, training, and awards designed to support and promote early- and mid-career neuroscientists. Founded in 2016, it runs hands-on workshops, an annual international conference, interactive webinars, and a range of prizes that engage thousands of researchers worldwide, while helping to inspire and support innovative, non-invasive brain stimulation research by emerging leaders in the field.

  • We are happy to issue a Certificate of Attendance to attendees, poster presenters, and speakers of the conference. Please ensure that you request your certificate before January 1, 2027.

  • If you are looking to register places for a group (Min. of three attendees), please get in touch with our team at info@brainbox-neuro.com and a member of our team will be able to help.

  • We anticipate that the conference will run from 09:00-17:30 (GMT), with additional time on day one for a food and drink reception for poster presenters and attendees.

    We are working hard to publish the programme as soon as possible.

  • As we will be hosting at the prestigious Wellcome Collection in the centre of London, we invite everyone attending in person to join us for an extended poster session following the first day of the conference as well as explore the historical city.

  • The call for posters for the Brainbox Initiative Conference is currently open until August 1, 2026. Please use the form located on the conference page to submit your abstract and our Scientific Committee will review your submission.

  • There will be an evening reception at the end of the first conference day with drinks and small dishes that all in-person attendees are welcome to attend.

  • Yes - standard registration will also cover access to the conference and all of the talks via an online streaming platform. The links to the livestreams will be sent out at the beginning of each day of the conference.

    In-person attendees are also invited to join us for refreshments throughout the day, a food and drink reception, and entry to the poster hall.

  • This year, the conference will focus on:

    • Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) techniques

    • Transcranial electrical stimulation (tES/tDCS/tACS/tRNS) techniques;

    • Transcranial-focused ultrasound stimulation;

    • Neuroimaging and methodologies

  • Online attendance tickets provide access to a live stream from the auditorium, covering all talks and poster presentations.

    Standard (in-person) registration also includes on-site access to the conference, entry to the poster hall, refrefreshments throughout the day, and a food and drink reception.
