Students and faculty from across campus will be presenting posters showcasing their research related to neuroscience across different fields. Food will be provided!

Who: All are welcome! Undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty interested in knowing more about ongoing interdisciplinary neuroscience research at UCM are encouraged to attend. Please share this message with anyone else who you think may be interested.

Students interested in presenting should fill out the following form in order to be eligible for a best poster award*: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeRm8pTf6bt1P9GMFq0Bj-DqVOJojeXCnf3GsUIVryWScZWCQ/viewform?usp=dialog

Following the mixer, we will all move over to the conference center for the annual Distinguished Cognitive Scientist Lecture and Award Ceremony. This year’s award will be presented to Sharon Thompson-Schill of the University of Pennsylvania (https://web.sas.upenn.edu/schill-lab/), a leader in behavioral and cognitive neuroscience.

Come by, enjoy some food, and get inspired by the diverse world of neuroscience research on campus!
