INCF plans to apply as a mentoring organisation for Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2026, and we are inviting experienced researchers, developers, and community members to propose project ideas and serve as mentors. Please feel free to forward this call to potentially interested mentors in your network.

The Professional Development Workshop at SfN 2025 brought together an engaged audience of early-career neuroscientists looking to understand what their futures could look like beyond the traditional academic path.

Join us for an inspiring panel featuring professionals who have successfully transitioned from neuroscience research into impactful roles across industry, technology, and science policy at SfN2025.

Date: Wednesday, 22 October 2025 
Host: International Neuroinformatics Coordinating Facility (INCF)

In an era where neuroscience is evolving faster than ever, the International Neuroinformatics Coordinating Facility (INCF) gathered its global community for an open Town Hall to discuss how we can best adapt — and lead — in this changing landscape.

As part of the upcoming Joint INCF–EBRAINS Day at the EBRAINS Summit 2025, a dedicated session will bring together leaders from major international neuroscience research infrastructures to discuss how the community can strengthen collaboration and maximize collective impact.

This event is an opportunity for all members of the INCF community to learn about our new mission for neuroscience communities and to share perspectives that will shape our strategy, partnerships, and priorities for the years ahead.
