CamBRAIN, the Cambridge Neuroscience Society, is one of largest student neuroscience societies in the UK. They are committed to fostering collaboration and communication amongst its >1,000 members, appreciating the diversity of research and interests that fall under the umbrella of this rapidly expanding and exciting field of neuroscience. In addition to academic talks, presentations and workshops intended for personal/career development, CamBRAIN runs a series of social and public engagement events which allow our members to share experiences and build successful networks.
The CamBRAIN committee is looking for new committee members, as well as a new President this year, which would include a transition period with the outgoing President. We’d love someone with experience of CamBRAIN and Cambridge Neuroscience events, or someone with similar experience, to take over this role. Given all the turnover in the committee, we are looking for proactive, enthusiastic and committed people to join the team and keep CamBRAIN going!
You must indicate the position you are interested in when you apply (please see posters below for full descriptions/responsibilities), but note that CamBRAIN is a fluid and collaborative team, so beyond the specific responsibilities of each role, committee members tend to get involved as and when required, and all committee members take turns to plan and host our monthly Neurotalks.
The deadline for applications is midnight on Monday 26 January. A one-week voting period, open to the CamBRAIN community, will follow to select the new committee.
Please contact current CamBRAIN President, Ailie, at agm72@cam.ac.uk if you have any questions.
Apply HereNote to undegraduates: We are delighted that undergraduates are more frequently attending our events, and as such, in recent years we have opened the undergraduate rep position. If you are an undergraduate and keen to apply, we ask you please apply to this position specifically, as CamBRAIN events run all year round, and so other positions require your presence in Cambridge out of term. As undergraduate rep you will have plentiful opportunities to be involved in CamBRAIN activities during term time. Thank you for your understanding on this.
