About this Event

Join us at Envirohealth 2026: Neuroecology: The Brain in Its Environment – From Planet to Home to Body

Get ready for an inspiring in-person event all about the brain in its environment. In this symposium, we use the concept of neuroecology to explore how large-scale environmental changes, our physical indoor habitats, and lifestyle stressors converge on the brain — driving adaptation, maladaptation, and clinical outcomes. Dive into the fascinating world where neuroscience meets ecology, and discover how our surroundings shape our minds. Connect with passionate thinkers, explore groundbreaking ideas, and enjoy engaging talks in a friendly atmosphere. Don't miss out on this unique chance to experience Envirohealth 2026 up close!
