Please plan to join the Neuroscience Community at UC Merced on April 24th from 2:00–3:00 PM in the California Room for a fun and friendly interdisciplinary event!
Students and faculty from across campus will be presenting posters showcasing their research related to neuroscience at this hour-long event, which is intended to provide a unique opportunity to explore the wide range of neuroscience work happening across different labs on campus. Both undergraduate and graduate students are encouraged to attend.
Food will be provided, and neuroscience faculty, graduate students, and NEURO-interested and/or affiliated undergraduate students will be there.
If you're an undergraduate Neuroscience major, this is a great chance to:
- Meet faculty and graduate students
- Learn about ongoing research programs
- Network and make connections
- Explore potential future opportunities
- Come by, enjoy some food, and get inspired by the diverse world of neuroscience research on campus!
Following the event, 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. Her talk is expected to be of broad interest, and we encourage everyone to attend! Feel free to email with any questions.
If you want to present a poster, do it! Doesn't have to be hardcore NEURO and we're interested in having neuro-curious folks there as much as anything.
Just fill out the google form below (we are going to track sign-ups so we can advertise names/content a bit more specifically as we get closer to the date). You can use an old poster, make a new poster, or just attend...but everyone should try to make it.
A map to help folks locate the California Room is attached. Details follow the link below.
