Conference Description

The Gordon Research Seminar on Cerebellum is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas.

Research studying cerebellar function and physiology is fundamental to our understanding of the basic principles of motor control and learning, as well as the mechanisms underlying cerebellar dysfunction and disease. This Gordon Research Seminar program highlights new research on the Cerebellum, spanning the fields of human and animal behavior, neurophysiology, computational models and genetics.

Related Meeting

This GRS will be held in conjunction with the "Cerebellum" Gordon Research Conference (GRC). Those interested in attending both meetings must submit an application for the GRC in addition to an application for the GRS. Refer to the associated GRC program page for more information.
