Cells, Circuits and Behavior: Understanding Hypothalamic Heterogeneity

The seminar will encompass a wide range of topics within hypothalamic research including cellular, molecular and functional heterogeneity of hypothalamic subnuclei, hypothalamic circuit connectivity, control of internal states by the hypothalamus as well as behaviors, including but not limited to feeding, metabolism, social behaviors, and circadian rhythms. There will be a poster session and speaker opportunities (selected from abstracts) to showcase trainee research. The seminar will include a panel discussion on careers in neuroscience. The overall goal of the seminar is to provide a safe and inclusive environment for trainees to showcase their work, engage in lively scientific discussions and develop a strong and supportive trainee community of emerging leaders in the hypothalamus field.

* Dr. Dayu Lin, Professor at NYU School of Medicine, will be the keynote speaker for the GRS Hypothalamus *
