	This is an advanced lecture and discussion course on the development and function of the nervous system. 20 participants with diverse geographical and intellectual backgrounds meet for two weeks with leading neuroscience researchers. The lectures provide both a comprehensive introduction as well as a detailed present of current research. There are many opportunities for interaction. This is an unusual opportunity to review contemporary ideas about the brain with leading scientists. In our last meeting, the speakers included Ann-marie Craig, Howard Eichenbaum, Marla Feller, David Ginty, Kirsten Harris, Rick Huganir, Alex Kolodkin, Jeff Lichtman, Jennifer Lippincott-Schwarz, Giles Laurent, Tim Mitchison, Bob Muller, Lou Reichardt, Tim Ryan, Erin Schuman, Tito Serafini, Rachel Wong, and Rafael Yuste. The specific topics covered will include neurogenetics, stem cell differentiation, cell and gene therapy, axon guidance, synapse formation, synaptic plasticity, hippocampal function, neuroimaging methods, human brain development and aging. The goal is to provide a critical view of the different levels of knowledge that are required for an integrated understanding of the brain.
