Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor, NY
July 19 - 23, 2012
We are pleased to announce the fourth summer conference on Glia in Health & Disease, which will be held at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, New York. The meeting will begin at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, July 19, and will conclude with lunch on Monday, July 23, 2012. The proposed meeting will assemble the leaders in the field, together with junior faculty, postdoctoral fellows and graduate students, to discuss new, cutting-edge developments in the study of all aspects of glial biology in health and disease. Topics and Discussion Leaders (to be announced):
Genetic Analysis of Glial Function
Gliovascular Interactions
Myelinating Cells
Glial Development
Axon-Glial Interactions
Glial Function at Synapses
Microglia Function in Health & Disease
Role of Glia in CNS Injury & Disease Roundtable Discussion The format of the meeting will include eight oral sessions and two poster sessions. Each oral session will include invited speakers and speakers selected from submitted abstracts. For this reason, abstracts from accomplished junior and senior investigators are warmly invited. As usual at Cold Spring Harbor meetings, abstracts of both poster and platform sessions will be published in an abstract book. The abstracts should focus on new and unpublished data. The organizers will select abstracts for oral or poster presentations.
