We are
pleased to announce the fourth Cold Spring Harbor winter conference on Neuronal Circuits,
which will begin at 7:30 pm on Wednesday, March 28 and run through lunch on
Saturday, March 31, 2012.
A comprehensive description of neuronal circuitry, an old dream of
neuroscientists, is about to become a reality with recent technological
advances. As these advances have been made in different model organisms and
systems, there is a need for a forum where neuroscientists studying various
neuronal circuits could exchange ideas. This CSHL meeting will allow for
neuroscientists working on neuronal circuits in a wide range of model
organisms, from invertebrates to mammals, to come together and discuss
their research. Contributions from research centered on neuronal circuits
involving anatomical, physiological, theoretical and behavioral approaches
will be encouraged.

Abstracts
are welcomed on all scientific topics related to the structure
or function of neuronal circuits. They should contain only new
and unpublished material and must be submitted electronically
by the abstract deadline. Selection of material for oral and
poster presentation will be made by the organizers and individual
session chairs. Status (talk/poster) of abstracts will be posted
on our web site as soon as decisions have been made by the organizers.
We are
eager to have as many young people as possible to attend since they are
likely to benefit most from this meeting. We have applied for funds from
government and industry to partially support graduate students and
postdocs. Apply in writing to stephens@cshl.edu
stating need for financial support - preference is given to those
submitting abstracts.
All questions pertaining to registration, fees, housing, meals, transportation,
visas, abstract submission or any other matters may be directed to stephens@cshl.edu
We
look forward to seeing you at Cold Spring Harbor in March.
