Programme

NeuroBridges2019 is a summer school which will take place between September 8 and September 19, 2019 in Cluny, France. The school will provide an overview of theoretical and experimental frameworks used to study a variety of decision making processes. It will cover a different model systems from rats to humans and a plethora of decision making mechanisms.
Another objective of Neurobridges is to bring together Mediterranean and Middle Eastern scientists, in order to promote scientific cooperation between young researchers from these countries. The organizers of NeuroBridges are convinced that such scientific collaborations can lead to personal relations, which eventually may alleviate the political distress in the Middle East.

NeuroBridges is co-organized by Ahmed El Hady (Princeton Neuroscience Institute, USA), Yonatan Loewenstein (Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel) and David Hansel (CNRS, Paris, France).

Since 1989, the « Association Canaux Ioniques » organizes a yearly meeting which aims at gathering the international scientific community working on all aspects of Ion channels. This meeting allows academics, students, as well as scientists from the pharmaceutical industry to share their latest advances in a relaxed but nonetheless studious atmosphere.

The 2019 meeting will also be the occasion to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the association.

We hope that many of you will be able to attend the 30th ion channel meeting that will take place in Sète, from 8th to 11th September 2019.

Important dates:

• Registration and Abstract submission opening: April 5th, 2019
• Registration and Abstract submission deadline: June 30th, 2019
• After this date an extra fee of 30% will be applied
• No registration will be accepted after July 30th, 2019

Check the meeting website for further information.

The Institut de Biologie Paris-Seine organizes an international summer school targeted primarily, but not exclusively, at PhD students and post-docs on the topic of endocrine disruptors.

Targeted primarily to PhD students and post-docs, this summer school will present the theory and practice on Endocrine Disruptors. During 5 days of lectures and practival work, participants will acquire a better approach and visibility on the endocrine disruption research.

Deadline for application: April 30, 2019

This year’s congress will bring together the top chronobiologists and sleep experts from around the world. They will tell us all about their most recent findings and best scientific stories, and what to expect in the future, in chronobiology and chronomedicine. The topics will cover molecular biology, non-visual photobiology, chrononutrition, chronomolecules, metabolism, imaging, mathematical modelling, big data, machine learning, shift work, cancer… And more!

The meeting will also be a unique opportunity to share your ideas, benefit from exchanges and discussions with colleagues, and disseminate your own results on a worldwide stage. Trainees and early-career researchers will be offered a five-star Trainee Day with the best researchers in the field!

Where is this happening? In beautiful Lyon, France’s second city, an energetic metropolis and an ancient capital with a superb old town.

We look forward to seeing you in beautiful Lyon in August 2019!

On behalf of the ISCBFM President and the Local Organizing Committee, we invite the members of the French Neuroscience Society to join us at YOKOHAMA BRAIN & BRAIN PET 2019, the 29th International Symposium on Cerebral Blood Flow, Metabolism and Function and the 14th International Conference on Quantification of Brain Function with PET to be held in Yokohama, Japan from July 4th – 7th 2019. Following the tradition of previous meetings, BRAIN & BRAIN PET 2019 will cover numerous aspects within the area of neuroscience research, particularly those related to brain function and metabolism, cerebral blood flow, the function of the neurovascular unit and the blood-brain barrier, brain imaging, brain repair, and cerebrovascular pathology.

Our goal is to present the state-of-the art and novel discoveries that will increase our understanding of brain function under physiological and pathological conditions through basic, translational, and clinical investigation. Leading scientist in these fields, members of the International Society for Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism (ISCBFM, http://iscbfm.org) and other exceptional scientists will participate as in our previous biannual meetings. The program committee is actively working to create an engaging scientific program that will be of interest to scientists working in all fields of neuroscience, from basic to clinical and applied research.

Yokohama, the second largest city in Japan, is located next to Tokyo along the coastline of the Pacific Ocean. The city has long prospered as an international port city trading with foreign countries that opened to the world in 1859, as it had favorable facilities to host ships from abroad. Since that time, Yokohama has been vigorously acquiring new cultures and information from other countries, and it developed a reputation as the source for new information from abroad that was disseminated around Japan, hence its nickname as the birthplace of Japan’s modern culture.

First Edition of Neurodynamics Symposium in Grenoble !!

Recent technologies have made it possible to study the in-vivo physiology of neurons, the dynamics of large scale neuronal ensembles and the neural circuits that connect different structures…

but how do these give rise to different brain functions?

This symposium aims to link three components: conceptual expertise, computational modeling and state-of-the-art methodologies, to advance our understanding of brain functions related to cognition and motivation.

The program will enclose poster sessions, oral presentations selected on abstract and oral talks of invited speakers (preliminar program to be announced soon!).

When? 4-5 July, 2019

Where? Maison Minatec Conference Center, Grenoble, France

REGISTRATION OPENING and ABSTRACT SUBMISSION : 1st February 2019 – May 15th 2019
