Event overview

After a first edition at the FENS Forum 2024, Funny Brains is back for the 2025 FENS Regional Meeting (FRM 2025)!

Fancy yourself a bit of a comedian and always wondered how to use humour to talk about science? Well, look no further! Sign up for this brilliant event, organised by the FENS Communication Committee, where you'll get the chance to craft a comedy set based on your favourite neuroscience topic under the expert guidance of science communication and comedy pros. Interested participants will also have the chance to perform their set on Day 2 of the FRM, during the "Young researchers’ social event" (17 June, 20:00-23:00).

This event is open to all FRM 2025 participants, and no prior comedy experience is needed, just a sense of curiosity (and maybe a sense of humour!). Performing your set on the second day is completely optional.

To keep things engaging, the event has a limit of 50 participants, allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. A waiting list will be created in case of last-minute cancellations.
