With the integration of COVID-19 into our lives, the way events are organized has changed. The Cerrahpaşa Neuroscience Days held on May 8-9, 2021, was one of the conferences that was affected. The annual conference of the student-based Cerrahpaşa Neuroscience Society transitioned to the internet for the first time and had the premise of going international.
With this study, we aim to both discuss how a virtual conference is organized and perceived, and where our conference stands within the literature as a completely student-organized event.
The conference was planned in accordance with virtual standards and promoted to primarily medical schools. During the execution, there were no major issues. The feedback was collected via a form developed with Google Forms.
Out of 2195 registrations, 299 qualified to receive a certificate. The feedback forms revealed a general satisfaction; the overall quality of the event was rated an average of 4.6 out of 5, and the ratings of various Likert scale-based questions were statistically analyzed. Open-ended questions provided improvement suggestions for future events.
The virtual Cerrahpaşa Neuroscience Days was a success in organization and received positive feedback from the participants. We aim to ground future events on this experience.
随着新冠疫情融入我们的生活，活动的组织方式发生了变化。2021年5月8日至9日举行的切拉帕夏神经科学日就是受影响的会议之一。以学生为基础的切拉帕夏神经科学协会的年度会议首次转向线上，并以走向国际为前提。
通过本研究，我们旨在讨论虚拟会议是如何组织和被认知的，以及我们的会议作为一个完全由学生组织的活动在文献中的地位。
会议按照虚拟标准进行策划，并主要向医学院校进行推广。在执行过程中，没有出现重大问题。通过谷歌表单开发的表格收集反馈意见。
在2195名注册者中，299人有资格获得证书。反馈表显示总体满意度较高；活动的整体质量平均评分为4.6分（满分5分），并对各种基于李克特量表的问题评分进行了统计分析。开放式问题为未来活动提供了改进建议。
虚拟的切拉帕夏神经科学日在组织上取得了成功，并得到了参与者的积极反馈。我们旨在基于这一经验举办未来的活动。
