INCTN 2026

A Trieste Encounters (TEX) meeting

SISSA, September 22-24, 2026

The Italian Network for Computational and Theoretical Neuroscience (INCTN) is a collaborative initiative aimed at facilitating the exchange of information and coordinating activities in the field of computational neuroscience. Its goal is to create a fertile environment that supports the next generation of researchers while promoting the sharing of scientific advances and relevant information. By bringing together the Italian computational neuroscience community, the network seeks to enhance its visibility and strengthen scientific exchanges with related communities.

This event is the third meeting organized by INCTN. It will be hosted at SISSA (International School for Advanced Studies) in Trieste and will span three days. The program is structured around three main topics: theoretical neuroscience, computational neuroscience, and systems neuroscience. Invited speakers include researchers based both in Italy and abroad who maintain strong connections with the Italian scientific community.
