Hello neuroscientists:

We’ve heard the message from members of the Manitoba Neuroscience Network that networking and interaction could be enhanced by holding events that have a social element to them.  With that in mind, we will schedule all visiting speakers this academic year on Friday afternoon from 3-4.  In addition, the MNN will host a reception immediately after these talks at 4:00 in the Canad Inn Health Sciences Centre.  At these receptions, there will be snacks served and the MNN will provide you with a drink ticket for beer or wine.

This Friday, September 19 is our first session.  The speaker is Dr. Cindi Morshead from the University of Toronto (announcement attached).  We will hand out drink tickets at the seminar and adjourn to the Canad Inn Hotel at 4:00 in Ambassador B (2^nd floor).  Please make every effort to attend the talk and reception.  We are interested to see how this goes!

Thanks for your time.

Chris
