The 21st Biennial European Drosophila Neurobiology Conference –  NeuroFly 2026 - will come to the University of Cologne, Germany, from 7th-11th September 2026 (Monday-Friday). 

The organizing team around Kei Ito (University of Cologne) aims to provide a venue for wide-ranging discussions and interactions between junior and senior researchers in an inclusive interdisciplinary environment that will allow the exchange of results, ideas and new concepts. A wide range of sessions will include all sorts of neuroscience: neuronal circuits, synapses, connectome, signal transmission, modulation, biochemistry, metabolism, behaviour, ethology, ecology, development, degeneration, regeneration, aging, injury, disease models, computational modeling, simulation, image/video analysis, big-data analysis, and so forth. The majority of the talks will be selected from abstracts allowing a range of emerging research to be presented from junior and senior researchers.

Registration will open in April 2026: https://neurofly.org/y2026/
