</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Bernstein Conference is the largest annual single-track Computational Neuroscience conference in Europe. It hosts pre-conference workshops which provide a stage to discuss topical research questions, novel scientific approaches and
challenges in Computational Neuroscience and related fields. <br>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Workshops addressing controversial issues, open problems, and comparisons of competing approaches are encouraged. The format should be designed to foster debate, rather than a mere series of talks. The selection criteria for workshop proposals
will include scientific excellence, topical relevance and gender diversity.<br>
