Welcome

Dear colleagues and friends,

The Organising Committee of the Dutch Neuroscience Meeting cordially invites you to submit proposals for plenary speakers and parallel sessions for next year’s edition.

Over the past decades, the DNM has become a platform for the Dutch neuroscience community to be inspired by exciting data and ideas, catch up with old friends and make new connections. By proposing a plenary speaker or organising your own session with an (inter)national key speaker you have the unique opportunity to shape the scientific programme of DNM 26 and create another successful edition of this national neuroscience forum. DNM 26 will take place on Thursday 25 June and Friday 26 June 2026, at the Van der Valk Hotel in Tiel. Please check the guidelines for session proposals for details. We especially encourage Dutch Principal Investigators to submit a proposal.

Plenary Speaker proposals

The Organising Committee strongly encourages and welcomes suggestions for plenary speakers. These should be experts in their field, with a broad appeal to all DNM attendants. If your proposed speaker is selected by the Organising Committee, costs for the speaker are covered (please consult the guidelines for further details) and you will be appointed chair of the plenary session hosting him/her.

Parallel session proposals

This is your chance to organise a session on your topic of interest and to promote scientific exchange and discussions with colleagues both from the Netherlands and abroad! You will have the opportunity to invite a renowned speaker at the expense of the organisation (please consult the guidelines for further details). If your proposal is selected by the Organising Committee, you will act as moderator (chair) of your parallel session at the DNM 26.

How to submit your proposals

Access this page and follow the simple instructions. The deadline for submitting proposals is 21 November 2025.

On behalf of the Organising Committee,
