Conference Description

The Gordon Research Seminar on Molecular and Cellular Neurobiology 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.

This meeting will cover a broad range of research topics from molecular to systems neuroscience, neural development, function, and disease, as well as new methodologies and technological advances in the field. Speakers will be selected from the submitted abstracts and poster sessions will foster discussion and networking opportunities.

Related Meeting

This GRS will be held in conjunction with the "Molecular and Cellular Neurobiology" 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.
