We focus on advancing fundamental knowledge on how the mind emerges from the behavior of individual molecules\, neurons and brain networks but also creating and commercializing transformational future technologies with outstanding potential to impact our society for good. \nHence\, this course will expose participants to the state-of-the-art of photonics-based technologies tailored to monitor a hierarchy of scales in the study of the brain: i.e. from single molecules up to the whole organism. \nThe MINDLAB faculty includes world leading experts in their fields. The expertise of the core faculty is complemented by a diverse set of affiliated adjunct faculty from various research centres in Barcelona but also through clinical and corporate partners. \nThis year’s school will open with the Annual Meeting of the Barcelona Medical Photonics Network (BMPN). BMPN is a platform to promote the research and development activities in photonics being carried out in the Barcelona region through long-standing collaborations between ICFO and its biomedical and clinical partners. Always centered around a targeted clinical area\, this forth edition of the BMPN annual meeting is perfectly aligned with the scope of MINDLAB. By addressing real-world healthcare challenges\, BMPN will set the stage for the training program\, providing essential context and inspiration for participants. The speakers and audience will include clinicians as well as technology developers and innovation managers\, from the Network but also professionals and collaborators from outside the region. \nHands-on sessions\nParticipants will engage in lab sessions focused on the latest photonics technologies. Each lab session will provide participants with an opportunity to work directly with advanced equipment and gain valuable practical skills. \nThe sessions will take place in the following labs: \n\nSuper resolution Light microscopy and Nanoscopy\nNeurophotonics and Mechanical Systems Biology\nMedical Optics\nPhoton Harvesting in Plants and Biomolecules\nSingle Molecules Biophotonics\n\nEligibility\nWe welcome applications from motivated students and early-stage researchers across a range of disciplines: physics\, optics\, engineering\, electronics\, mathematics\, chemistry\, biology\, and related fields. \nPriority will be given to master’s-level and advanced undergraduate students\, though PhD candidates and young postgraduates are also encouraged to apply. \nHow To Apply\nThere is NO fee for students to attend the school. \nApplicants must submit: \n\nA Curriculum Vitae\, including contact details.\nA statement of purpose outlining their motivation for attending the school.\n\nApplications must be submitted online\, and all required application material must be complete in order to be considered. \nThe deadline for applications is September 30\, 2025.Successful applicants will be notified during the week of October 6\, 2025. \nFor any questions\, please contact us at frontiers@icfo.eu \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n More information\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Register here URL:https://lasers4.eu/event/lasers4eu-training-hands-on-course-on-mindlab-manipulating-and-investigating-neural-dynamics-for-learning-and-ageing-in-the-brain/ LOCATION:Castelldefels\, Castelldefels\, Barcelona\, Spain CATEGORIES:Project,Trainings ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://lasers4.eu/wp-content/uploads/icfo_mindlab_2025_2.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Berlin:20251111T130000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Berlin:20251111T170000 DTSTAMP:20260423T174343 CREATED:20251021T112502Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251021T141731Z UID:6186-1762866000-1762880400@lasers4.eu SUMMARY:HZDR Data Management Days 2025 - Shaping Research Data Practices with Lasers4EU DESCRIPTION:This year’s HZDR Data Management Days will take place from Tuesday\, 11 November (1 p.m.) to Wednesday\, 12 November (3 p.m.)\, featuring a mix of lectures and interactive workshops.The programme on 12 November is only for internal participants. \nIn the context of advancing digitalisation and an ever-increasing need for reproducibility\,  this year’s event will focus on the data and software management landscape in general and at HZDR in particular. \nHZDR colleagues will share insights into typical challenges in data and software management and present practical solutions developed in their daily work. \nOn 11 November\, the lectures will be held in a hybrid format and are open to external participants. Lasers4EU partners are warmly invited to join the online sessions. \nA session of particular relevance for the Lasers4EU community will address data management planning using RDMO (Research Data Management Organiser). As funding agencies increasingly require Data Management Plans (DMPs) defining how data and metadata are handled during and after projects\, the HZDR instance of RDMO\, accessible via Helmholtz ID\, supports collaborative preparation of DMPs\, even with external partners. \nWithin this context\, the Lasers4EU project serves as a potential use case for tailoring generic DMP questionnaires to specific needs\, distinguishing between questions for proposing scientists\, access-providing facilities\, and repository providers. The session will therefore be of direct interest to Lasers4EU partners involved in data management\, access coordination\, and research infrastructure development. \nFor more information and the full programme\, please visit HZDR Data Management Days 2025 \n \n Register here URL:https://lasers4.eu/event/hzdr-data-management-days-2025/ CATEGORIES:Project,Webinars ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://lasers4.eu/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Logo_Lasers4EU-2024_rgb.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Berlin:20251117T100000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Berlin:20251117T113000 DTSTAMP:20260423T174343 CREATED:20251113T000925Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251113T065604Z UID:6512-1763373600-1763379000@lasers4.eu SUMMARY:Lasers4EU Industrial Advisory Committee meeting\, 17 November 2025 DESCRIPTION:The first meeting of the Lasers4EU Industrial Advisory Committee (IAC) will take place on 17 November 2025\, bringing together representatives from industry and project partners to help guide the project’s strategic direction. \nIAC members are expected to provide professional and technical input on key aspects of the project\, including exploitation opportunities\, innovation needs\, and the incorporation of industry perspectives into the design and evaluation of project activities. Their contributions will help ensure that Lasers4EU remains closely aligned with market demands. \nPlease note: this is an internal project event.
