Principal themes and objectives
The Ascona Meetings on Neuronal Circuits are a leading forum on neuronal circuit research worldwide. The Ascona 2026 Neuronal Circuits Meeting will feature neuronal circuit research in a broad range of organisms including humans and Drosophila. It will present work on how specific neuronal circuits encode information and drive behavior, on how brain systems interact to produce specific functions, on how connectomics informs function, on circuits underlying species-naturalistic behaviors, on how neuronal circuits interact with other body systems, and on how circuit adjustments and brain states influence learning at the systems level and behavior.
