FENS activity includes several main directions. They organize the great conference - FENS Forum which is held once per two years. Members pay a reduced registration fee and may apply for the travel grant. Many USN members use this possibility to attend different events.

Also, FENS supports and organize a number of educational and training programs which give the possibility to study the new approaches in neuroscience from leading researchers.
