This lecture takes place every two years on the theme of the human brain. The organ is the literal nerve-centre of all our behaviour, our actions, our emotions, but also sadly many diseases. The theme of the 2023 edition will focus on innovations in the field of neuro-technology, under the title "Fiction or Reality", looking at how the advances will impact the lives of people with diseases in the very near future. The programme of the congress is determined by the scientific panel of the FESN, chaired by Prof Pierre Magistretti, and organised with the support of Magnoglia, a Monegasque company that looks to develop innovative pharmaceutical products in the field.
