NeuroCom 2025

Agenda

NeuroCom 2025 is a one-day conference consisting of a morning and an afternoon session. The morning session will include an opening speech along with a tribute to Assoc. Professor Vladimír Krajča. This will be followed by lectures from invited experts and leading figures in the field of biomedical signal processing and neurology.

The afternoon session will be dedicated to student presentations, particularly by graduates of FBME under the guidance of the BRAIN team. The lectures in the afternoon session will be delivered in English and thematically divided into three main panels in the fields of biomedical informatics and biomedical engineering, as outlined below.
