With creative formats, the event offered participants an ideal platform to exchange pioneering research ideas and initiate new interdisciplinary projects in the University of Freiburg's “Brain and Intelligence” profile field.

Furthermore, the NEXUS Experiments team introduced an exciting design fiction approach: PhD students and postdocs from various disciplines worked in teams to develop creative prototypes that presented speculative applications of neurotechnology and reflected on the challenges between basic research and clinical application. 

The successful workshop impressively demonstrated how the collaboration of creative minds can produce fascinating new approaches for the future of research.
