Call for Nominations – the Bernstein-CorTec Award 2021

For the second time we will be able to present the Bernstein-CorTec Award this year. The cooperation between CorTec and the Bernstein-Center Freiburg makes it possible to award a prize money of 1000 € for master and doctoral theses in the interdisciplinary field of Neurotechnology and Computational Neuroscience.

The award is given in recognition of outstanding achievements at the University of Freiburg and was most recently awarded for no less than two outstanding doctoral theses by Dr. Julia Gallinaro and Dr. Katharina Heining.

This year, the award will be given to master’s theses in the field of neurotechnology and computational neuroscience.

Nominations for the award can be sent by June 30 via email to Ms. Fiona Siegfried.
