Dear
Auditory list,
We
write to announce the 2018 Neurobiology of Cognition Gordon
Research Conference (GRC) and to invite interested
parties to submit abstracts for the poster sessions at the
conference. The
conference will be held July 22- 27, 2018 at the Sunday
River Resort, Newry, ME. The GRC will be preceded by a
Gordon Research Seminar (GRS), a two-day mini-conference
July 21-22, organized by and for trainees, most of whom will
then attend the parent conference. Check out the website for
the current conference here (https://www.grc.org/neurobiology-of-cognition-conference/2018/)
or scroll down.
The registration deadline for this
meeting is June 24, 2018. However, please don't wait; apply
as soon as possible to ensure there is space for you. Finally: abstracts
submitted by Monday June 11 will also be considered for
several oral presentation slots in the platform sessions.
We
look forward to seeing you there!
With best wishes,
