What we know about the brain and how it works can be applied to much more than the study of neurological and psychiatric diseases. The brain is the very essence of our humanity, and almost every aspect of our daily lives is directly related to neuroscience. Stimulating memory, facilitating attention, maintaining motivation, or having fun are all levers that demonstrate how neuroscience contributes to learning and can be exceptional success factors. Many trainings could thus benefit from the knowledge gained from neuroscience to optimize their impacts.

With this in mind, and as a reference institute dedicated to the study of the brain and the discovery of new treatments for diseases of the nervous system, Paris Brain Institute aims to train highly qualified professionals in the fields of research and care who wish to optimize their practices and to open up the teaching of neurosciences to anyone outside basic or clinical research.

Education in Neuroscience

Paris Brain Institute : a key player in Neuroscience education

Rich with an ecosystem bringing together teams of researchers of international dimensions, clinicians, cutting-edge technological platforms, incubated start-ups and an ecosystem dedicated to innovation, prestigious academic (Sorbonne University) and clinical (AP-HP) partners, Paris Brain Institute aims, through its Education cluster (the Open Brain School), to foster vocations, develop skills and reinforce the knowledge they have acquired.

A rich and ambitious catalogue

The Education cluster of Paris Brain Institute offers a large catalogue of training courses in science, clinical and innovation available on the Open Brain School website as well as events dedicated to everyone.

Continuing education

Continuing training is a key element of professional development, aimed at updating and deepening the knowledge and skills of individuals already active in the labour market. It is aimed at professionals who want to upgrade, retrain or adapt to rapid changes in their sector of activity. Paris Brain Institute, in collaboration with its partners, is committed to providing high-quality continuing education in varied and flexible formats to support researchers, clinicians, paramedics and others in the neuroscience community throughout their careers.

Initial training

Initial training is the first stage of education and aims to provide the knowledge and skills needed to enter the labour market. It is aimed at young people at the beginning of their academic career and its duration varies according to the programme chosen, whether it be a BTS, a Bachelor’s degree, a Master’s degree or a Doctorate. Paris Brain Institute is committed, along with its partners, to the initial training of the young people who will become the neuroscience researchers of tomorrow.

Events

Paris Brain Institute organizes events dedicated to opening up about neuroscience to all audiences.
