Computational Neuroscience Imbizo

The Computational Neuroscience Imbizo is an opportunity for African and international students to learn about cutting edge research techniques in computational neuroscience. Located on the shores of Cape Town, South Africa, this 3-week summer school is an intense and immersive experience that leaves one walking away with not just new computational neuroscience knowledge, but new connections with people around the world.

The goal of the Imbizo is to bring together those interested in Neuroscience, Africa, and African Neuroscience to share knowledge and create a pan-continental and international community of scientists.

From my role as an attendee of the first edition in 2017, I became organiser and head mentor from 2019 until 2024.
