A commitment to sustainability

FENS is dedicated to minimising the environmental impact of its events and firmly believes that we all have a part to play in preserving our future for generations to come, both locally and across the globe. FENS is convinced of the central value that comes from bringing researchers from a broad range of neuroscientific disciplines together every second year to discuss and advance their research agendas.

FENS has therefore devised a strategy for more sustainable meetings to enable our delegates to meet with a reduced environmental impact on the environment. This strategy is trifold:

 

Reduce and minimise the use of energy, resources and waste

 

Maximise recycling in a responsible way

 

Enable delegates to offset the carbon emissions from their air transport when they register.
