The <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://bernstein-network.de/en/network/awards-and-initiatives/bernstein-smartsteps/">
<b><span class="internal-link">Bernstein SmartSteps</span></b></a> series provides a unique platform for selected Early Career Scientists of the
<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://bernstein-network.de/en/"><b>Bernstein Network Computational Neuroscience</b></a> to present their research projects to the scientific community. Each session one PhD candidate and one Postdoc who are ready to take their
next (smart) step for their scientific career will discuss their research in an online seminar.
<p>Join the Bernstein SmartSteps Series as an audience if you are interested in cutting-edge computational neuroscience and want to watch out for new talents in the field. The live talks will be held in Zoom. A recording will be published in a separate collection
on the Bernstein Vimeo Channel.</p>
