Which country is next? A hint will be posted anytime!😂

Attention CaMinA Community!👀

Something exciting is coming…🎉🚀
CaMinA Summer School 2026 is on its way! 🧠💻

Where do you think it will take place?🌍

Only one African country will host the 2026 CaMinA magic.

💬 Drop your guess in the comments!😆

📢 Official application announcement coming very soon!

The weekend is here, but a serious question: As a neuroscientist, did you actually take a break? To exercise? To play with their favourite pets? Or do we just call coding “fun”? 🧑🏽‍💻🐶🤣. Please take a break and rejuvenate!

#TReNDCaMinA #Neurofit #Exercise

📢 High school & undergrad students, this is for you!

Join NextGen Neuro-School 2025 🧠 (22–28 Sept), a week-long online #neuroscience intensive to spark curiosity & build skills organised by our #TReNDCaMinA Alumni.

⏳ Deadline: 12 Sept

#TReND TA & Student Reunion at @deeplearningindaba.bsky.social 2025
From the classrooms of #TReNDCaMinA 2024 in Kigali to the collaborative halls of Deep Learning Indaba 2025, TA Devon Jarvis and student Malik Lanlokun have come full circle. Their reunion underscores TReND's impact.

Project Day Highlights ✨

Our students at #TReNDCaMinA Summer School @Unza turned their learning into action, creating exciting projects using #AllenInstitute data.

Here are some moments from their presentations, and we are excited to see their next steps!

Students & faculty were challenged to create AI logos for #TReNDCaMinA 2025. The cohort voted for the best. Congrats to Kaloso Mpho Tlotleng @kalosotlotleng.bsky.social from
BIUST. His design is on the back of this year’s shirts. Our team gifted him a yellow shirt 🎉🥳!

👏 Hats off to our 2025 Cohort! Congratulations!
You completed a transformative journey in #computationalneuroscience and #Machinelearning course.
To our TAs, organizing team & sponsors, endless thanks for making it happen successfully.

Our summer program values mentorship as much as scientific skill-building, connecting Africa’s talents with experts in both #academia and #industry. Grateful to @neurokim.bsky.social & @ankahira.bsky.social for inspiring our 2025 cohort. @columbiauniversity.bsky.social @astra-zeneca.bsky.social

As we near the final stretch of #TReNDCaMinA summer school, our students and TAs explored Zambian culture with visits to #KabwataCulturalVillage and downtown Lusaka, connecting with local traditions and everyday life.

They’re now refreshed for their classes and projects this week.

Time to reboot the neurons. 🧠

Brains need breaks. No code, no screens, just fresh air, games, stretching, and laughs between students and the TAs.

Rule #1: Keep laptops and phones away and relax

Our unofficial TA, the campus cat 😅, already knew that rest matters.

This week, students explore brain structure, function, and computation using datasets from the @alleninstitute.org. Thanks to TAs @ashvparker.bsky.social, Evren Gokcen, Gilgal A., @mzouink.bsky.social, @pollytur.bsky.social, and @skuechenhoff.bsky.social for their sharp insight and mentorship!

Week 2 is here, and the energy is high!
Our students showed up with open minds and big smiles, entering this new week with curiosity, focus, and a drive to learn together. They’re excited for what the week holds at @trendcamina.bsky.social
Momentum is growing — and so is the community. Let's go! 😊

Ever seen TAs explain neural networks and sing “Happy Birthday”? 😅 Now you have. We paused to celebrate Gloria Adubea Awuku — a reminder that science is about people. Thanks to our amazing TAs and students @trendcamina.bsky.social — these connections make knowledge stick.

Our students kicked off the week with Spikeling from @opensourceneuro.bsky.social, seeing neurons fire live and making theory real. Then they explored @alleninstitute.org open neural data, preparing for upcoming projects.
