Introduction
“NeuroTRACT’s 2020 Updates” is an online event designed to explore the current trends in the fields of neuroscience, neurology, and psychiatry for junior researchers. This event is designed hoping to ease the difficulties of defining an appropriate research question in the early days of becoming a researcher. After numerous brainstormings and negotiations at NeuroTRACT, we managed to provide interested students in the field of Neuroscience with an event that can help them develop their research ideas informatively, since this has always been the major challenge for our junior researchers. which is seemed to be one of the biggest barriers in front of all junior researchers.

The program will be held in six weeks. December 25th, January 1st and January 8th are dedicated to diverse neuroscience based talks to help the audience develop their research ideas and also get advise from remarkable senior researchers from top universities across the world! On each day of the seminars, 6 talks will be held by an experts in one neuroscience-related field, starting from 9 am to 4 pm (one hour is left free for lunchtime). Each session consists of a 45 minutes online talk on the current feasible research trends for junior researchers and 15 minutes is dedicated to interactive questions and answers with the audience.

At the end of the seminar the participants will be invited to submit their developed research proposals that they have composed throughout the event to compete with the other participants. All are welcome to get scientific advises from the NeuroTRACT scientific committee. After the final evaluation, the highest ranks will respectively receive 2000000, 1000000, and 500000 Tomans as a reward to help in following their research.

Although we do not press background restrictions, the school initially targets students with some level of research skills. Everyone is welcomed to register.
