How to become a member or renew my membership?
Click the button below to become ESCAN member:
To renew your membership, simply use the link in the email that is automatically sent to you in December, right before your two-year membership expires. If you have not received an email by mid-December (double-check any SPAM folder), please contact the treasurer via treasurer-at-escaneurosci.eu.
If you recently paid your fee as a new member, you will receive a separate notification by mail once we have processed your payment and added your account to the profile, enabling you to opt-in for the mailing lists. Because of the manual work involved, we update the member database to reflect the most recent payments only 3 or 4 times a year.
What are your advantages as an individual member?
- Join the ESCAN community and connect with peers through the general member mailing list.
- Stay informed about activities, e.g. from the special interest groups and committees using their mailing lists.
- Receive a significant discount on registration fees for the bi-annual ESCAN conference.
- Share your ideas and engage with the ESCAN community to help shape initiatives and discussions, e.g. by contributing to or setting up a Special Interest Group.
- Membership may qualify you to apply for awards, such as the ESCAN Young Investigator Award.
- Members may request to share their research through ESCAN’s official channels (e.g., newsletter, website, social media), provided it aligns with the mission of the society.
- ESCAN is part of broader scientific initiatives and networks such as ALBA and FENS, supporting equity and open science in neuroscience.
- ESCAN is now on Bluesky—you can follow us directly via the link on the homepage.
Membership fee
ESCAN's philosophy is that subscriptions should be as low as possible.
The current membership fee is 35 Euros per year for full members and 5 Euros per year for junior members. In order to streamline administrative processes, fees are collected for a two-year period. Please note that your membership will be valid until 31 December of the next calendar year following your payment date.
Full members are typically staff members such as (senior) researchers, PostDocs, and Assistant, Associate, or Full Professors.
Junior members are typically Master's or Ph.D. students who do not have a Ph.D. by May 1st of the first year of this two-year cycle.
ESCAN is an association under European (Dutch) law and is registered under #50406396 at the Chamber of Commerce in Amsterdam.
