In addition, NeuroCure supports newly recruited junior group leaders with structured mentoring opportunities.

Career development is supported by the Berlin Neuroscience Network, which provides resources on career options, funding opportunities, and job offers. The network also hosts the Career Lunch Talk Series, and provides a platform for contacting career ambassadors and other alumni. In addition, an event calendar gives an overview of workshops, trainings, lectures, science communication events, and networking opportunities in Berlin and beyond.

In addition to the training for neuroscientists offered by NeuroCure and its partners, a range of personal and professional development opportunities are offered by the Berlin University Alliance.
