This message is sent on behalf of Dr. Soheila Karimi, the chair of 2015 MNN Scientific Meeting
Dear Neuroscience community,
Since 2010, the Manitoba Neuroscience Network held annual scientific meetings of neuroscience faculty and trainees. These gatherings have been received with tremendous enthusiasm, attracting around 150 attendees each year. We are pleased to build on this success by holding a 5th annual meeting in 2015.
The Winnipeg Chapter of the Society for Neuroscience (WCSN), under the leadership of Dr. Chris Anderson, actively promotes neuroscience research, education and outreach in Manitoba. The Manitoba Neuroscience network represents the cornerstone approach of the WCSN to encourage communication, cooperation and collaboration among Manitoba’s broad basic and clinical neuroscience research community.
In 2015, the meeting content will center on, synaptic plasticity, neural networks, epigenetic and genetic modeling of CNS disorders, and neural repair and regeneration. There will be participation by Manitoba principal investigators and invited speakers. There will also be a poster competition for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows to show case the research done in neuroscience labs in Manitoba.
Please register for and attend the event to maximize your awareness of the research quality and opportunities in your community in an atmosphere designed to encourage social interaction.
Deadline for abstract submission is May 1st, 2015. Please follow the link to view the program, register for the event and submit an abstract.
Sincerely,
Soheila Karimi, PhD
