IMAGING NEURONS & NEURAL ACTIVITY

 
  February 14, 2007  
     
 


Cold Spring Harbor Meeting, Cold Spring Harbor, New York
March 22 - 25, 2007


We are looking forward to a broad-based meeting, and abstracts are welcomed on all scientific topics related to imaging neuronal structure and function (Light, EM, MRI) and manipulation of neuronal function (using genetics, light, chemistry). This unique forum is designed to stimulate future research studies in this important area and to promote interactions amongst researchers in diverse basic scientific areas relevant to this field.

The format of the meeting will consist of six morning and evening sessions of eight or nine 15-minute talks per session, largely selected from the abstracts. Abstracts should contain only new and unpublished material and must be submitted electronically by the abstract deadline.
