Dear Neuroscientists,

As you are aware, the 5th MNN Scientific Meeting will be held at Radisson Hotel Winnipeg Downtown on June 12, 2015. This event will bring together all Manitoban neuroscientists each year to share their recent research findings and importantly to interact with each other to establish new collaborative work. We have an exciting program for this year that focuses on synaptic plasticity and neural networks, genetic and epigenetic modeling of CNS disorders and neural repair and regeneration (See the attached flyer and the link below for more information on the meeting and the scientific program).

Please show your support by attending the meeting and also encourage your trainees and research staff to participate in this event and submit their work for poster presentation.

Deadline for abstract submission has been extended to May 11st, 2015 at 5 pm. Registration for attendees who are not submitting an abstract will remain open until May 25th.

Please follow the link below to view the program, register for the event and submit an abstract. http://www.sbrc.ca/mnn2015

We are looking forward to seeing you all in the meeting on June 12!

Sincerely,

Soheila Karimi, PhD
