The Brainbox Initiative Conference is thrilled to announce its 9th annual event, dedicated to advancing research in non-invasive brain stimulation and neuroimaging. Taking place on 25th-26th September 2025 at the prestigious Wellcome Collection in London, this conference is a must-attend for early-mid career researchers.
Key Topics for 2025
Over two engaging days, the programme will explore groundbreaking research in:
- Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)
- Transcranial Electrical Stimulation (tES, tDCS, tACS, tRNS)
- Transcranial Focused Ultrasound Stimulation (TUS/tFUS)
- Neuroimaging and Methodologies
Since its inception in 2017, the conference has been a platform for early and mid-career researchers to present their work alongside world-renowned experts, fostering innovation and collaboration.

Don't miss this opportunity to connect with leading researchers, discover new innovations, and contribute to the future of neuroscience. Keep an eye out for programme announcements and our keynote speakers!
Submit a poster
Each year, the Brainbox Initiative Conference offers early-career researchers the opportunity not only to share their research posters at the conference, but also to supplement this display with a supporting three-minute, on-stage pitch to the full conference cohort. These pitches help researchers to ensure that they are reaching as wide an audience as possible at the event, as well as providing crucial first-hand experience of speaking on-stage at an internationally-attended event.
We encourage any researchers who would like to present their work at the Brainbox Initiative Conference 2025 to submit an abstract. Call for entries is open now, and we will be accepting submissions until August 1, 2025.
