Francis Crick Neuroscience Symposium

 
  January 28, 2010  
     
 


Cold Spring Harbor Asia Conferences, Suzhou, China
April 12 - 17, 2010


We are pleased to announce the inaugural Cold Spring Harbor Asia Francis Crick Neurobiology Symposium which will be held at the Suzhou Dushu Lake Conference Center in Suzhou, China. The Symposium will begin at 7.30pm on the evening of Monday April 12th, and will conclude after lunch on Saturday, April 17th.

This Symposium is similar in design to the famous Cold Spring Harbor Symposia series, now in its 75th year. The Francis Crick Symposium will include ten oral sessions and two poster sessions covering the latest findings across many topics in neurobiology. The majority of the talks will be given by invited speakers but some talks will be selected from the openly submitted abstracts. Social events throughout the Symposium provide ample opportunity for informal interactions.

Topics include:
Neurogenesis (embryonic and adult)
Neuronal development (polarization, axon guidance, migration)
Synaptogenesis (formation, refinement)
Synaptic plasticity & cell biology of neurons (ion channels, trafficking, regulation)
Neural circuit functions (sensory processing)
Neural circuit functions (others)
Cognitive functions (learning and memory)
Cognitive functions (others)
